For this problem I have to order these numbers from least to greatest. Would this be correct:
.62< .622 < .6262 < 5/8
but 5/8 = .625
So would this be it: .62 < .622 < .6262 < .625
NO!!!!
the whole point of my reply was
.625 < .626
Sorry Damon. Is this right now: .62 < .622 < .625 < .626? Is it right now
Yes :)
To order these numbers from least to greatest, you can follow these steps:
1. Compare the whole numbers:
- The whole number in 5/8 is 5.
- The other numbers have a whole number part of 0.
2. Compare the decimal parts:
- For numbers with a whole number part of 0, compare the decimal parts:
- .62 < .622 < .6262
3. Compare the fraction 5/8 to the previous decimals:
- Convert 5/8 to a decimal by dividing 5 by 8:
- 5 ÷ 8 = 0.625
- Compare the decimal to the previous decimals:
- .62 < .622 < .625 < .6262
Therefore, the correct order from least to greatest is:
.62 < .622 < 5/8 < .6262
