All the denominators divide into 60, so if we multiply each fraction by 60, the numbers will be easier to put in order. When we multiply a fraction by 60, we first divide the denominator by 60 and multiply the result by the numerator. So for example, 4/10 becomes 4×6=24 because 10 goes into 60 six times.
The list becomes:
24, 40, 36, 28, 48.
Put these in ascending order:
24, 28, 36, 40, 48.
Now we replace these with the original fractions:
4/10, 14/30, 3/5, 10/15, 16/20.
(Note that some of these fractions reduce to simpler fractions, but that would have taken an extra step.)
