Compare and order rational numbers written as fractions, decimals, and percents.
Order rational numbers across forms
Problem
Order these numbers from least to greatest: \(62\%\), \(5/8\), \(0.59\), \(0.7\).
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
Ordering mixed forms is safest after converting everything to one representation. We’ll write the percent and fraction as decimals, align all values through the thousandths place, and compare from left to right. The two values near sixty-two hundredths need special care, so we’ll use their small difference to confirm their order.
