  • A. 0.3, 1/5 and 15%
  • B. 1/5, 0.3 and 15%
  • C. 0.3, 15% and 1/5
  • D. 15%, 1/5 and 0.3

Explanation

To solve this question, convert each value to a decimal:0.3 is already a decimal.1/5 = 0.215% = 15/100 = 0.15Now, arrange them in ascending order (smallest to largest):0.15, 0.2, 0.3Therefore, the ascending order of 0.3, 1/5, and 15% is:15%, 1/5, 0.3The other options are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct ascending order of the converted decimals.
