Put the following numbers in Descending order (Greatest to Least)


Group of answer choices

7/5, 0.74, 5/7, 64%

64%, 5/7, 0.74, 7/5

7/5, 64%, 5/7, 0.74

64%, 0.74, 5/7, 7/5

To arrange the numbers \( \frac{7}{5}, 0.74, \frac{5}{7}, 64\% \) in descending order (from greatest to least), we first convert them into a common format (decimals) for easier comparison:

- \( \frac{7}{5} = 1.4 \)
- \( 0.74 = 0.74 \) (already in decimal form)
- \( \frac{5}{7} \approx 0.714 \)
- \( 64\% = 0.64 \)

Now, the numbers are:

- \( 1.4, 0.74, 0.714, 0.64 \)

In descending order, we get:

\[
1.4, 0.74, 0.714, 0.64
\]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

**7/5, 0.74, 5/7, 64%**
