Put these numbers in order from least to greatest. 6.7, 8 4/5, 7 1/4

To order the numbers from least to greatest, we first need to convert them into comparable forms, such as decimals:

- \( 6.7 \) is already a decimal.
- \( 8 \frac{4}{5} = 8 + \frac{4}{5} = 8 + 0.8 = 8.8 \)
- \( 7 \frac{1}{4} = 7 + \frac{1}{4} = 7 + 0.25 = 7.25 \)

Now, we compare the decimals:

- \( 6.7 \)
- \( 7.25 \)
- \( 8.8 \)

Thus, the order from least to greatest is:

\[
6.7, 7.25, 8.8
\]
