HERE'S YOUR ANSWER! ♥️
1/2,2/3,3/4,1/5,3/5 in descending order...
1) First Find The LCM
LCM = 2 × 2× 3× 5
= 60
2) Now Multiply the fractions by a number which makes the number 60 in denominator,
1/2 × 30/30 = 30/60
2/3 × 20/20 = 40/60
3/4 × 15/15 = 45/60
1/5 × 12/12 = 12/60
3/5 × 12/12 = 36/60
The Numbers that came in the result are same to the number that multiplied.
Means the first number 1/2 = 30/60.
3) Now Arrange in Descending order.
So we can now arrange the numbers in Descending order.
Descending order means the numbers in the series are bigger to smaller.
Descending order, 12/60, 30/60, 36/60, 40/60, 45/60.
In the Orgin Number, Descending order = 1/5, 1/2, 3/5, 2/3, 3/4
Because
12/60 = 1/5
30/60 =1/2
36/60 =3/5
40/60 =2/3
45/60 =3/4
