Question 114100: Place the following set in ascending order.
3/7, -6/7, 1/7, -1/2, 2/7 These have to go in ascending order and again they are fractions which i hate, and need help. I am thinking the -1/2, -6/7 are the first 2 in ascending order? Then 1/7, 2/7, 3/7 ? or am I backwards or not even close?
