What numbers are arranged from greatest to least?
These numbes are arranged fom greatest to least. Which value is next?
7/8 0.75 5/8 then blank
f)1\2
g) 0.58
h) 6\8
j)0.65
The easiest way is to change 0.75 to a fraction >> 3/4 = 6/8
So -- 7/8, 6/8, 5/8
Which of your choices equals 4/8?
Yes, there is a quick way to find the answer without doing calculations for each option. Since the numbers are already arranged from greatest to least, we can compare the fractions and decimals directly to determine which value comes next.
First, let's compare the fractions. It's helpful to convert each fraction to an equivalent form with the same denominator. In this case, we can convert the fractions to have a denominator of 8.
- Option F: 1/2 is equivalent to 4/8.
- Option H: 6/8 is already in the desired form.
Comparing the fractions, we can see that 4/8 (Option F) is less than 6/8 (Option H).
Now, let's compare the decimals. Since they are already given as decimal values, we can easily compare them.
- Option G: 0.58
- Option J: 0.65
Comparing the decimals, we can see that 0.58 (Option G) is less than 0.65 (Option J).
Putting everything together, the value that comes next in the arrangement is Option G) 0.58.
