Question

arrange in descending order 5/27 ,4/9, 7/24 , 5/12 solve step by step​

Answer 1

Given :

Arrange the given values in descending order (greatest to lowest).

Explanation :

The given values are :

$\frac{5}{27}, \frac{4}{9}, \frac{7}{24}, \frac{5}{12}$

First we will take LCM.

The LCM of all denominators = 3 × 3 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 216

Now we have to make all the denominators same by multiplying the same number to numerator and denominator.

$\frac{5\times 8}{27\times 8}=\frac{40}{216}$

$\frac{4\times 24}{9\times 24}= \frac{96}{216}$

$\frac{7\times 9}{24\times 9}=\frac{63}{216}$

$\frac{5\times 18}{12\times 18}=\frac{90}{216}$

Now compare the numerators and find the greatest number to lowest.

$\frac{4}{9}, \frac{5}{12}, \frac{7}{24}, \frac{5}{27}$
