To order fractions and decimals, you can either write them all in the same form and then compare them, or place them on a number line. Recall that numbers increase in value as you move from left to right along a number line.

How can a number line be used to compare rational numbers?
because the # line shows the rational #'s in order from least to greatest
How to Order rational numbers from least to greatest?
how do u put rational numbers in order from lest to greatest
How do you do compare and order fractions and mixed numbers?
It may be simplest to convert them all to a common form: rational fractions, decimal fractions or percentages and then compare them. When you are more expert, you may be able to convert them pairwise into a common basis and compare.
Is there more rational numbers then irrational?
No. There are infinitely many of both but the number of irrational numbers is an order of infinity greater than that for rational numbers.
Is there rational numbers than irrational?
There are infinitely many rational numbers and irrational numbers but the cardinality of irrationals is larger by an order of magnitude.If the cardinality of the countably infinite rational numbers is represented by a, then the cardinality of irrationals is 2^a.

How do you order rational and irrational numbers?
Write them as decimals, and compare. If the first digit of two numbers is equal, compare the second digit; if the second digit is equal, compare the third digit, etc.
Order rational numbers?
Rational numbers are (basically) fractions. You can compare any two fractions by converting them to fractions with a common denominator, and then comparing their numerators.You can also convert them to their decimal equivalent (just divide numerator by denominator); that also makes them fairly easy to compare.

How do you order rational numbers when they come in percent forms?
Any percentage is simply a rational number, with the denominator of 100. So multiply them all by 100 and order the resulting rational numbers.
Is making a mixed number into an improper number a method to compare rational numbers?
Yes.

Compare these rational numbers 5 and 8 and 1over 2?
5 < 8 1/2
Is the set of all rational numbers continuous?
Continuity is a characteristic of functions not of sets.The set of rational number is infinitely dense. This means that between any two rational numbers, no matter how close together, there are infinitely many rational numbers. And then, between any two of them these is an infinte number of rational numbers, and so on.But, in case that gives you any wrong ideas, between any two rational numbers there is an even higher order of infinity of irrational numbers. In that respect the number of gaps in the set of rational numbers (where the irrational numbers would be) is greater than the cardinality of rational numbers.Continuity is a characteristic of functions not of sets.The set of rational number is infinitely dense.

Are there more rational numbers or irrational Numbers?
No. The number of irrationals is an order of infinity greater.
