Convert all three fractions to a common denominator and compare the numerators to arrange the fractions in order

Explanation:

The quickest, but not always the lowest common denominator, can be found by multiplying the given denominators, in this case
2x3x5 =30 Now convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with the denominator of 30
(1/2)(15/15) = 15/30
(2/3)(10/10) =20/30
(4/5)(6/6) = 24/30
Looking at the numerators, 24 , 20 and 15 we can quickly see that the highest to lowest arrangement would be; 4/5 , 2/3 and 1/2.
