Which is greater 0.9 x 2 or 2 + 9? My answer is 0.9 + 2 is greater because it equals 2.9 and 0.9 x 2 = 1.8.. Is this correct?

Are these your choices?

0.9 x 2
or
2 + 9

0.9 x 2 or 2 + 0.9

Your answer is right.

No, your answer is not correct. To determine which is greater between 0.9 x 2 and 2 + 9, we need to evaluate both expressions.

To start, let's calculate 0.9 x 2:
0.9 x 2 = 1.8

Now, let's calculate 2 + 9:
2 + 9 = 11

Comparing the two results, we find that 11 is greater than 1.8. Therefore, 2 + 9 is greater than 0.9 x 2.

So, the correct answer is 2 + 9 is greater than 0.9 x 2.
