Which is a true statement?
(Points : 4)
A.6.52 < 6.5
B. 2.8 > 3.5
C.11.1 > 10.7
D. 7.75 < 8.45
I like C
but how come?
At first I thought it was A then D ?
well, 11 is greater than 10.7
11 > 10.7
11.1 is even greater
11.1 > 11 > 10.7
Can you use the number line? If, plot all those values. The ones on the right are greater than those to their left.
wait A is so wrong lol .. and D? 8.45 is bigger i think?
ohh okay thank u !
But you are right. D is also true.
Both C and D are correct.
11.1 is greater than 10.7
7.75 is less than 8.45
well i see, I forgot to put the negative signs..sorry
To determine which statement is true, we need to compare the given numbers.
A. 6.52 < 6.5: To compare two numbers, we look at the digits from left to right. The first difference we find is at the second decimal place. 6.52 has a 2 in the second decimal place, while 6.5 has a 0. Since 2 is greater than 0, we can say that 6.52 is greater than 6.5. Therefore, the statement A is false.
B. 2.8 > 3.5: Once again, let's compare the digits from left to right. The first difference is at the whole number part. 2 is less than 3, so we can already determine that 2.8 is less than 3.5. Therefore, the statement B is false.
C. 11.1 > 10.7: Comparing again, we start with the whole number part. 11 is greater than 10, so we can say that 11.1 is greater than 10.7. Therefore, the statement C is true.
D. 7.75 < 8.45: Comparing the digits from left to right, the first difference is at the whole number part. 7 is less than 8, so we can already determine that 7.75 is less than 8.45. Therefore, the statement D is true.
Based on our comparisons, the true statement is D. 7.75 < 8.45.
