Question

write the following ratio in ascending order 2:3,7:12 and 13:19​

Answer 1

Ascending order of 2:3,7:12 and 13:19 is $\frac{7}{12}<\frac{2}{3} <\frac{13}{19}$.

1) Numbers are in ascending order means that the numbers are arranged in increasing order means from smallest to largest.

2) Ascending of the ratios is given by

• $\frac{2}{3} , \frac{7}{12}$ (we will cross multiply it)

24 >21 ( so the first fraction is greater)

$\frac{2}{3} > \frac{7}{12}$ ---(I)

again,

• $\frac{7}{12}, \frac{13}{19}$

133 < 156 (second fraction is grater)

$\frac{7}{12}<\frac{13}{19}$---(II)

now,

• $\frac{2}{3}, \frac{13}{19}$

38<39 (second fraction is grater)

$\frac{2}{3}< \frac{13}{19}$ ----(III)

From the equations:

$\frac{7}{12}<\frac{2}{3} <\frac{13}{19}$
