Comparing and ordering rational numbers with negative decimals

We discussed comparing and ordering rational number. In sixth and seventh grade students were asked to put positive rational numbers (fractions, decimals, and percents) in order.

What students need to remember is that you put these values in order the same way that you put integers in order.
