Ordering FDP

You can convert all the values to decimal form for easy comparing and ordering.

If we are going to determine the order of the values, we need to convert them into the same form.

Let's take the fraction and convert it to a decimal.

Let's take the percent and convert it to a decimal.

With all the values now in decimal form, line up the place values. Put a zero as a place holder to make all the values have 2 decimal places.

Slide over place values until you see different values. The first value we want needs to be the least, so we will choose 18%, which is Pop music.

Since the 4's were the same in the last place value, we need to move over another place value to compare them. Since zero is the least, it will be our next value, which is Country music.

We need to list them in order from least to greatest. Let's look at our question again...
