Order this set of numbers from least go greatest
9/14 66% 2/3 0.61 5/8 67% 0.65
Answer: 0.61, 5/8, 9/14, 0.65, 66%, 2/3, 0.67
Right.
8/9 = 96/108
11/12 = 99/108
4/7 = 64/112
9/16 = 63/112
13/20 = 65/100
17/25 = 68/100
Or, you could convert to decimals and compare those.
For the last one, probably easier to convert the fractions to decimals, since some of the values are already decimals.
Thanks. :D
What does it mean when it says this :
|56|
|-128|
Oops. My bad. I neglected to see that you had already done all the work. Good job!
|x| is always positive, so just strip away any "-" on the inside value.
|56|=56
|-128|=128
|56|=56
|-128|=128
|0|=0
|-33|=33?
To determine the correct symbol (<, >, or =) for each statement, we need to compare the fractions or numbers. Here's how you can do it:
1. For the statement "8/9 < 11/12", compare the two fractions. To do this, find a common denominator. In this case, we can use the product of the denominators (9 * 12 = 108). Then, convert both fractions to have the same denominator:
- 8/9 * (12/12) = 96/108
- 11/12 * (9/9) = 99/108
Now, we can see that 96/108 is less than 99/108, so the statement "8/9 < 11/12" is true.
2. For the statement "4/7 > 9/16", follow the same process of finding a common denominator and converting the fractions:
- 4/7 * (16/16) = 64/112
- 9/16 * (7/7) = 63/112
Now, we can see that 64/112 is greater than 63/112, so the statement "4/7 > 9/16" is true.
3. For the statement "13/20 < 17/25":
- In this case, we can find a common denominator by multiplying the denominators (20 * 25 = 500).
- Then, convert the fractions:
- 13/20 * (25/25) = 325/500
- 17/25 * (20/20) = 340/500
Here, 325/500 is less than 340/500, so the statement "13/20 < 17/25" is true.
To order the set of numbers from least to greatest, follow these steps:
1. Convert the percentages to fractions:
- 66% = 66/100 = 33/50
- 67% = 67/100 = 67/100
2. Compare the fractions and decimals:
- 0.61 < 5/8
- 5/8 < 9/14
- 9/14 < 0.65
- 0.65 < 33/50
- 33/50 < 67/100
- 67/100 < 2/3
Thus, the correct order from least to greatest is: 0.61, 5/8, 9/14, 0.65, 66%, 2/3, 67%.
