There are 11 parts of fruit: 4-strawberry, 3 - grape, 2, cherry, 1 - apple, 1-orange

4/11 from the entine quantity of fruits - strawberry

3/11-grapes

2/11 - cherries

1/11 - apples

1/11 - oranges } ⇒ the quantity of oranges and apples are equal

The biggest part of the fruit - 4/11 - are strawberries

4/11>3/11>2/11>1/11

the smallest part of the fruit - apples and oranges
