    Ok so the first thing we need to do is find the least common denominator. The LCD is 36.

    Now we must make all the denominators 36.

    (2/3) = (24/36)

    (4/9) = (16/36)

    (5/6) = (30/36)

    (7/12) = (21/36)

    So we have the numbers (24/36), (16/36), (30/36), and (21/36).

    Since they all have the same denominator, we can compare all the numerators and order hem from least to greatest.

    (16/36) < (21/36) < (24/36) < (30/36)

    Now that we have the order, we must simplify the numbers back to their original forms.

    (4/9) < (7/12) < (2/3) < (5/6)

    And that is your answer
