Open in App

Solution

The given numbers are $\frac{7}{8}, \frac{36}{- 12}, \frac{5}{- 4}, \frac{- 2}{3}$

LCM of the denominator is $24$

We can write above number as $\frac{21}{24}$ , $\frac{72}{- 24}$ , $\frac{30}{- 24}$ , $\frac{- 16}{24}$

Hence, the ascending order of the given numbers is $\frac{36}{- 12}$ < $\frac{5}{- 4}$ < $\frac{- 2}{3}$ < $\frac{7}{8}$ .
