Example
5. The table shows the school carnival attendance. Which grade has the greatest part of the class attending the carnival?
Order the numbers from least to greatest. Express each number as a decimal with the same number of places.
\(\frac{5}{8}\) = 0.625 0.5 = 0.500 58.3% = 0.583
Graph the numbers on a number line.
From least to greatest, the numbers are 0.5, 58.3%, and \(\frac{5}{8}\).
Since \(\frac{5}{8}\) represents Grade 6, Grade 6 has the greatest part of the class attending the school carnival.
