Answer:

C) 1/4,3/8,2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite all the fractions listed as decimal numbers:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}=0.400[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{4}=0.250[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{8}=0.375[/tex]

So the correct order from least to greatest should be

0.250, 0.375, 0.400

Which corresponds in fractional form to

1/4, 3/8, 2/5

So the correct option is

C) 1/4,3/8,2/5
