Question

Order the numbers from least to greatest.

$-2,\frac{7}{8}, 0.8, 2.1, 1\frac{1}{3}$

Short answer

The numbers from least to greatest are $\mathbf{-}\mathbf{2}\mathbf{<}\mathbf{0}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{8}\mathbf{<}\frac{\mathbf{7}}{\mathbf{8}}\mathbf{<}\frac{\mathbf{4}}{\mathbf{3}}\mathbf{<}\mathbf{2}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{1}$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information

The number are $-2,\frac{7}{8},0.8,2.1,\frac{4}{3}$.

Step 2. Calculation 

Write the fraction numbers as decimals.

$\begin{array}{l}\frac{7}{8}=0.875\\ \frac{4}{3}=1.33\end{array}$

Therefore, the numbers are $-2,0.875,0.8,2.1,1.33$

Arrange the above numbers from least to greatest,

$-2<0·875<0·8<2.1<1·33$

Thus, the numbers from least to greatest are $-2<0·8<\frac{7}{8}<\frac{4}{3}<2.1$.
