Order the numbers 0.64,2/3, 65%, and 7/10, from least to greatest.
Can You PLZ Tell Me How U Did This? THX!
I suggest you change them all to decimals, and then it is easy to see.
Ummmm, More Specificity???
2/3 = 0.66
7/10 = 0.70
now things should be clear.
would it be .64, 65%,, 2/3, 7/10
Sure! To order the numbers 0.64, 2/3, 65%, and 7/10 from least to greatest, we need to determine their decimal or fractional equivalents and compare them.
1. Let's start by converting fractions into decimals:
- 2/3 can be converted to a decimal by dividing 2 by 3: 2 ÷ 3 = 0.6667 (rounded to four decimal places).
- 7/10 can be converted to a decimal by dividing 7 by 10: 7 ÷ 10 = 0.7.
2. Now, let's convert percentages to decimals:
- 65% can be converted to a decimal by dividing 65 by 100: 65 ÷ 100 = 0.65.
3. Now we have three decimal values: 0.64, 0.6667, and 0.7. To compare them, we can use either a number line or by comparing the digits.
By comparing the decimals, we see that:
- 0.64 < 0.6667 < 0.7.
4. Finally, let's compare the remaining fraction, 2/3.
- Comparing 0.64 to 2/3, we can convert 2/3 to a decimal by dividing 2 by 3: 2 ÷ 3 = 0.6667 (rounded to four decimal places).
- Since 0.64 = 0.6667, they are equal.
5. Therefore, the numbers in increasing order are:
0.64, 2/3, 65%, 7/10.
