Praxis 5003 Practice Test Practice Question
Which of the following lists the numbers shown in order from least to greatest?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To order the numbers from least to greatest, it's essential to convert them into a common format, such as decimals.
1(1/5) converts to 1.2, 3/5 is 0.6, 1/12 is approximately 0.083, and 0.68 remains as is. Arranging these values gives 0.083 (1/12), 0.6 (3/5), 0.68, and 1.2 (1(1/5)).
Option A incorrectly places 1(1/5) at the beginning, while option C misplaces 0.68 after 3/5. Option D also incorrectly begins with 0.68, which is greater than 1/12. Thus, only option B accurately lists the numbers from least to greatest: 1/12, 3/5, 0.68, and 1(1/5).
