What is 1/5,0.251,and 25% on a number line in ascending order?
Change the fraction and the percent to decimals. That will make them easy to order in ascending order.
To find the order of these numbers on a number line, we need to convert them into a common format.
First, let's convert 1/5 to a decimal. To do this, divide 1 by 5: 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2. So, 1/5 as a decimal is 0.2.
Next, we have the number 0.251, which is already in decimal form.
Lastly, we have 25% which is a percentage. To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide the percentage value by 100. So, 25% ÷ 100 = 0.25.
Now, we have all the numbers in decimal form: 0.2, 0.251, and 0.25.
To compare these numbers on a number line, we start from left to right with the smallest value. In this case, 0.2 is the smallest, followed by 0.25, and finally 0.251.
So, the numbers in ascending order on a number line are as follows:
0.2, 0.25, and 0.251.
