#-0.7,-1/2,3/4,0.8#

Explanation:

Firstly, we should at least know that negatives are smaller than any positive number possible. Therefore, #3/4# and #0.8# are ruled out for now.

We can convert #-1/2# into a decimal which turns into #-0.5#. In addition, we know that #-0.7# is smaller because a number that is larger in the negative spectrum is "smaller". Therefore, #-0.7# is the smallest while #-1/2# is the second smallest.

Next, we should try converting #3/4# into a decimal by dividing 4 by 3 to get #0.75#.

Therefore, #0.75# is third and #0.8# is the fourth.
