Answer:
[tex]-2\frac{1}{2};-\frac{3}{8};\frac{7}{8};2\frac{1}{2} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we need to order all numbers from least to greatest. To do that, we can recur to the decimal number of each fraction.
We have [tex]-\frac{3}{8};\frac{7}{8};-2 \frac{1}{2} ;2\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
First, we have to position the negative numbers, because they are less than positive numbers. Between [tex]-\frac{3}{8}[/tex] and -2 \frac{1}{2}, which is the least?
[tex]-\frac{3}{8} =-0.375[/tex]
[tex]-2\frac{1}{2} =-2.5[/tex]
Therefore, we have to position [tex]-2\frac{1}{2}[/tex] first, second [tex]-\frac{3}{8} [/tex], because -2.5 is less than -0.375.
To position the other two numbers we do the same process:
[tex]2\frac{1}{2} =2.5[/tex]
[tex]\frac{7}{8}=0.875[/tex]
In this case, 2.5 is more than 0.875. So, the fourth number is 0.875 and the fifth number is 2.5.
Therefore, the correct position is:
[tex]-2\frac{1}{2};-\frac{3}{8};\frac{7}{8};2\frac{1}{2} [/tex]
