Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/7=0.71428571...
3/8=0.375
1/2=0.500
0.375<0.500<0.714
so 3/8<1/2<5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{5}{7} = \frac{5 \times 8}{7 \times 8} = \frac{40}{56} \\ \\ \frac{3}{8} = \frac{5 \times 7}{8 \times 7} = \frac{21}{56} \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1\times 28}{ \times 28} = \frac{28}{56} \\ \\ \because 21 < 28 < 40 \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{21}{56} < \frac{28}{56} < \frac{40}{56} \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: \frac{3}{8} < \frac{1}{2} < \frac{5}{7} }}[/tex]
