Order these numbers from least to greatest.
square root 6, 50/20 ,2.43 ,-square root 5
Note that for this question you can use your mouse to drag the numbers into their positions.
-√5, √6, 2.43, 50/20
you sure
Apologies for that mistake. Let me correct it.
-√5, 2.43, √6, 50/20
To order these numbers from least to greatest, we need to compare their values. Let's analyze each number and compare them step by step:
1. Start by simplifying the given numbers:
- Square root of 6 = √6 = approximately 2.45
- 50/20 = 2.5
- 2.43 remains the same
- Negative square root of 5 = -√5 = approximately -2.24
2. Now, we have the simplified values of each number:
- 2.45
- 2.5
- 2.43
- -2.24
3. Comparing these values, we can determine the order:
- From least to greatest: -2.24, 2.43, 2.45, 2.5
To follow along visually:
1. Drag the number -2.24 to the leftmost position.
2. Next, place 2.43 to the right of -2.24.
3. Place 2.45 to the right of 2.43.
4. Finally, move 2.5 to the rightmost position.
The order from least to greatest is:
- Square root of 6, -√5, 2.43, 2.5
