how the heck do i order these fractions??

i have no clue! I think i had it right the first time, but my teacher counted it wrong! the fractions are

3/4 1/2 1/8 1/4 7/8 5/8 5/16 7/16

she wants us to put them from least to biggest, and i still dont understand…i looked at the denominators..and ordered them that way, but i still got them marked wrong!!

can someone order them for me or something cause im lost!!

thank you!!

Change each of them so that the denominators are all the same, then rank them.

3/4 would be 12/16

1/2 would be 8/16

1/8 would be 2/16

1/4 would be 4/16

7/8 would be 14/16

5/16

7/16

Now put them in order.

You can turn them all into the same denominator!

3/4=12/16

1/2=8/16

1/8=2/16

1/4=4/16

7/8=14/16

5/8=10/16

5/16=5/16

7/16=7/16

1/8(2/16), 1/4(4/16), 5/16, 7/16, 1/2(8/16), 7/8 (14/16)

well sweety, how about you multiply everything by a certain number so you can have the same denominator on all fractions… that way it would be MUCH easier for you to solve…or be smart and put it all in the calculator and align them from least to greatest …as follows:

i will get you started and let you know that 1/8 is the smallest! followed by 1/4…..and then 5/16….now you be a good girl and do the rest lol…. its not good to just get the answers! because we cant help u on tests lol.. Hope i helped =)

The gadget you’re describing is the flame proving gadget. The probe it particularly is located interior the (pilot) flame is actual a thermocouple that produces a tiny electric powered contemporary while heated. The wires from it are related to a solenoid coil, and the armature of it particularly is connected such that it may shrink off the gas if the electrical powered contemporary disappears, and the sloenoid drops the armature. What you’re protecting once you press the igniter to gentle the flame is the armature operation, pushing it into touch with the solenoid bodily.This additionally activates the gas to the pilot. If the pilot lighting fixtures fixtures, and contemporary is there, the armature keeps to be in touch with the solenoid, and the gas, as quickly as the button is released, flows to the biggest burner. there is probable additionally a mercury tilt change in series with the solenoid, that still cuts the gas if the heater is tipped over. in case you carry the button, press the igniter, and the pilot lighting fixtures fixtures, yet once you launch the button the flame is going out, you have a issue with the thermocouple, the lean change, or the solenoid or its connections, or ultimately, the biggest gas valve. the top of the thermocouple might desire to be able that it particularly is easily heated by utilising the pilot flame. they are oftentimes very sturdy issues. If the pilot fails to gentle, you’re having hardship with the igniter. I even have chanced on that to be a undemanding issue,the spark tip isn’t able it may easily gentle the pilot. seek for the lean change, see it particularly is isn’t out of place. i’m going to assume you have sufficient gas, and it particularly is grew to become on. i won’t be able to envisage precisely what your unit is like, yet what I describe is the undemanding affiliation of those issues.
