Put these numbers in order from greatest to least.
6/40

-3/12

6

6, 6/40, -3/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Data: 6/40, -3/12, 6

Put in greatest to least

Step one, Seperate the negatives and positives

Positives: 6, 6/40 Negatives: -3/12

Reason: Negatives are lower than positives so finding them early can help you figure out the lowest number

Step two, Seperate the fractions(in the positives)

Whole numbers: 6 Fractions: 6/40

Reason: Fractions that aren't improper or mixed are lower than whole numbers most of the time so seperating them can help you find the order

Step three, use the infomation to put them in order in greatest to least.

6, 6/40, -3/12

Reason: Since we know negatives are lower than positives, we can put the negative at the bottom, and since we can deduce that whole numbers are greater most of the time than regular fractions, we can put 6 at the top since the is only 1 whole number. And the only place for the 6/40 to go its the middle so that's where it goes.

6, 6/40, -3/12
