Margo lists the sizes, inches, of set of screws: 9/64, 5/32, 1/16, 1/8. She reasons that because the denominators are in order from greatest to least, the list is in order from least to greatest. Is Margo correct? Why or why not?

    I think she is incorrect she need to change all the fractions to the same denominators

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are going to change all the fractions to 64

    9/64 stays the same

    5/32 multiply 2 then 10/64

    1/16 multiply by 4 then 4/64

    1/8 multiply by 8 then 8/64

    Now we can order then

    5/32 > 9/64 > 1/8 > 1/16 This is the right order

    She was wrong.
