Ordering of Fractions - Best Practices

Best practices for ordering of fractions.

Step 1 : Converted to equivalent fractions of the same denominator

Step 2 : Label "greatest, middle and smallest' by their sides.

Step 3 : Circle the original fractions as given in teh questions.

Step 4 : Transfer the fractions into your  answer space in increasing or decreasing order as required    
              by the question.
