First find the common denominator of the fractions
It is 12
2%2F3+=+8%2F12
3%2F4+=+9%2F12
------------
Order from least to greatest
-7 is the least, since it is the largest number
with a (-) sign
-6 is the next larger number
0 is the next number you find going in
the positive direction
Then comes 8%2F12, and then 9%2F12
The order, then is
-7
-6
0
2/3
3/4
