Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.37 Compare and Order Fractions skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Order 5/6, 19/24, 7/8, and 13/18 from least to greatest.
A5/6, 19/24, 7/8, 13/18
B7/8, 5/6, 19/24, 13/18
C5/6, 7/8, 13/18, 19/24
D13/18, 19/24, 5/6, 7/8
Solution & Explanation:Use denominator 72: 5/6 = 60/72, 19/24 = 57/72, 7/8 = 63/72, 13/18 = 52/72. Reading the equivalent fractions from least to greatest gives 13/18, 19/24, 5/6, 7/8.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which comparison has the same greater-than relationship as 4/5 > 7/9?
A3/4 < 4/5
B7/10 = 14/20
C5/6 > 9/11
D2/3 < 5/6
Solution & Explanation:The model comparison 4/5 > 7/9 is a greater-than statement. Also, 5/6 = 55/66 and 9/11 = 54/66, so 5/6 > 9/11.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Which equivalent-fraction comparison correctly supports 17/24 < 23/32?
A17/24 = 51/96 and 23/32 = 69/96
B17/24 = 68/96 and 23/32 = 69/96
C17/24 = 72/96 and 23/32 = 69/96
D17/24 = 17/96 and 23/32 = 23/96
Solution & Explanation:The least common denominator is 96. Since 68/96 is less than 69/96, 17/24 < 23/32.
