  1. Answer:

    7/8 < -5/12 < 4/-9 < -2/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First we will take the LCM of the denominators -9, 12, 18, 3

    WE’ve got 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x (-1) x 1 x 1 x 1

    4 x 9 x -1 x 1

    36 x -1

    -36 is our lcm

    now,

    ≈ [tex]\frac{4 \ x \ 4}{-9 \ x\ 4} = \frac{16}{-36}[/tex]

    ≈ [tex]\frac{-5 \ x \ -3}{12 \ x \ -3} = \frac{15}{-36}[/tex]

    ≈ [tex]\frac{7\ x\ -2}{18 \ x \ -2} = \frac{-14}{-36}[/tex]

    ≈ [tex]\frac{-2\ x\ -12}{3 \ x \ -12} = \frac{24}{-36}[/tex]

    -14 < 15 < 16 < 24

    so , 7/8 < -5/12 < 4/-9 < -2/3

    Hope it Helps∫
