When you multiply 2/3 by a fraction less than one, how does the product compare to the factors?

The product is less than either of the factors. Multiplying a number < 1 with 2/3 another number < 1, will give a fraction of a fraction, and part of a fraction is an even smaller fraction. Another way of looking at it: Fractions less than one have numerators smaller than their denominators. When multiplying fractions, you multiply across, so multiplying two fractions that are both less than one will always give a numerator much smaller than the denominator, and a larger denominator makes for a smaller number. I hope this helps, but if you have questions, ask.

im sorry but no. i just need to answer for 50 poonts oof

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
