Put these numbers in order from least to greatest. 1 4/5 , 1 1/2, 2.7

To put the numbers in order from least to greatest, first convert them all to decimal form:

1. \( 1 \frac{4}{5} = 1 + \frac{4}{5} = 1 + 0.8 = 1.8 \)
2. \( 1 \frac{1}{2} = 1 + \frac{1}{2} = 1 + 0.5 = 1.5 \)
3. \( 2.7 \) is already in decimal form.

Now, compare the decimal values:
- \( 1.5 \)
- \( 1.8 \)
- \( 2.7 \)

So, the numbers in order from least to greatest are:
\[ 1 \frac{1}{2} , 1 \frac{4}{5} , 2.7 \]
