A manufacturing plant makes belts for appliances. On Wednesday, they produced belts with diameters 1 3/2 in., 7/16 in., 3/4 in., 5/8 in., and 1 5/16 in. Drag the fractions to order them from least to greatest.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex] in., [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] in., [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] in., 1[tex]\frac{5}{16}[/tex] in., 1[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameters of the belt produced are given in fractions which can be converted to decimals to know their values.

Thus,

1 3/2 in. = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] in. = 2.5 in.

7/16 in. = 0.4375 in.

3/4 in. = 0.75 in.

5/8 in. = 0.625 in.

1 5/16 in. = [tex]\frac{21}{16}[/tex] in. = 1.3125 in.

Arranging the vales from least to greatest, we have;

0.4375 in., 0.625 in.,0.75 in., 1.3125 in., 2.5 in.  = [tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex] in., [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] in., [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] in., 1[tex]\frac{5}{16}[/tex] in., 1[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] in.
