I can see that the image contains a question about arranging fractions in decreasing order. Let's work through it.

The fractions to arrange are:
\[
\frac{12}{17}, \frac{7}{11}, \frac{5}{8}, \frac{4}{5}, \frac{8}{15}
\]

We can either compare them by converting to decimals or finding a common denominator. Let's proceed by converting each fraction into its decimal form:

\[
\frac{12}{17} = 0.7059, \quad \frac{7}{11} = 0.6364, \quad \frac{5}{8} = 0.625, \quad \frac{4}{5} = 0.8, \quad \frac{8}{15} = 0.5333
\]

Now, we can arrange them in decreasing order based on their decimal values:

\[
\frac{4}{5} = 0.8 > \frac{12}{17} = 0.7059 > \frac{7}{11} = 0.6364 > \frac{5}{8} = 0.625 > \frac{8}{15} = 0.5333
\]

Thus, the correct order in decreasing values is:
\[
\frac{4}{5}, \frac{12}{17}, \frac{7}{11}, \frac{5}{8}, \frac{8}{15}
\]

Let me know if you'd like further details or explanations!

Here are 5 relative questions:
1. What is a quick method to compare fractions?
2. How can we convert fractions to decimals manually?
3. Why does converting fractions to decimals help in ordering them?
4. What is the importance of using a common denominator to compare fractions?
5. What are some real-life applications of comparing fractions?

**Tip:** When comparing fractions, converting them to decimal equivalents is a fast method if finding a common denominator seems too complex.

Arrange the following fractions in decreasing order: 12/17, 7/11, 5/8, 4/5, 8/15.

Learn how to arrange fractions 12/17, 7/11, 5/8, 4/5, and 8/15 in decreasing order by converting them to decimal values. A detailed step-by-step solution suitable for students in Grades 6-8.
