Answer:

  (A) -2, 3/7, 1/2, 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers are in increasing order when they are listed left-to-right as they appear on the number line.

The only numbers that may give you trouble are 3/7 = 6/14 and 1/2 = 7/14.

The negative number is less than any positive number. 1.2 is greater than any fraction that is less than 1.

The correct ordering is found in choice A.
