Arrange the following fractions in descending order : \(\frac{7}{8} \; ; \; \frac{19}{23} \; ; \; \frac{15}{17}\)
15/17 > 7/8 > 19/23
Convert each fraction to its decimal value for comparison.
\(\frac{7}{8} = 0.875, \ \frac{19}{23} \approx 0.826, \ \frac{15}{17} \approx 0.882\)
Arranging these decimal values from largest to smallest gives 0.882 > 0.875 > 0.826.
Hence, the descending order is \(\frac{15}{17} > \frac{7}{8} > \frac{19}{23}\).
