In order to compare the numbers, let's put all of them into the decimal form:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2.62 \\ \\ 2\frac{2}{5}=2+\frac{2}{5}=\frac{10}{5}+\frac{2}{5}=\frac{12}{5}=2.4 \\ \\ 26.8 \\ \\ 2.26 \\ \\ 271\text{\%}=\frac{271}{100}=2.71 \end{gathered}[/tex]We can see that the greater one is 26.8 (all other numbers are close to 2, and this one is close to 27).
The numbers in decrescent order are:
26.8, 271%, 2.62, 2 2/5, 2.26.
