Question

1. thursday afternoon between 4:00 and 5:00 you spend $\frac{1}{4}$ of the hour reading email, 0.4 hour doing homework, and 35% of the hour doing chores. write the numbers in order from least to greatest.

Explanation:

Step1: Convert to decimal

Convert \(\frac{1}{4}\) to decimal: \(\frac{1}{4} = 0.25\)
Convert \(35\%\) to decimal: \(35\% = 0.35\)

Step2: Compare decimals

We have the decimals: \(0.25\) (from \(\frac{1}{4}\)), \(0.35\) (from \(35\%\)), and \(0.4\) (given for homework).
Comparing these decimals: \(0.25 < 0.35 < 0.4\)
So the original numbers in order from least to greatest are \(\frac{1}{4}\), \(35\%\), \(0.4\)

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{4}\), \(35\%\), \(0.4\)
