Put the following in order from in between 1 and 2 here are the numbers: 0.78, 1/4, 2/3, 3/4, and 77%.
Second Problem:
Same as the one above but here are the numbers: 0.67, 2/3, 0.600, and 65%
Change all of the fractions and percents to decimals.
Remember: Divide the numerator by the denominator in a fraction to get its decimal equivalent.
I'll be glad to check your answers.
For the first problen I got these in order: 1, 2/3, 77%, 0.78, 3/4, 1/4, 2. Are these in proper order?
No.
Please follow my instructions and change all fractions and percents to decimals.
Okay, how about: 1, 1.50, 0.78, 0.77, 0.75, 0.25, 2?
Think of it as money.
The least amount of money is 0.25. The most is 2.00.
What are the numbers between 0.25 and 2.00?
Hopefully third times the charm....
0.25, 0.75, 0.77, 0.78, 1.50?
Yay! You've got it! :-)
Lol yay! Haha, thank you!!!
You're very welcome!
To put the given numbers in order between 1 and 2, you need to compare each number to the midpoint value of 1. Then, arrange them in ascending order based on their proximity to 1.
For the first problem, here are the steps to find the correct order:
Step 1: Convert all the numbers to decimal form:
- 1/4 = 0.25
- 2/3 = 0.67
- 3/4 = 0.75
- 0.78, already in decimal form
- 77% = 0.77 (percentage divided by 100)
Step 2: Compare each number to the midpoint (1):
- 0.25 is the closest to 1.
- 0.67 is closer to 1 than 0.25, so it comes after it.
- 0.75 is closer to 1 than 0.67, so it comes after it.
- 0.77 is closer to 1 than 0.75, so it comes after it.
- 0.78 is the farthest from 1, so it comes last.
Therefore, the correct order is: 1/4, 2/3, 3/4, 77%, 0.78.
For the second problem, let's follow the same steps:
Step 1: Convert all the numbers to decimal form:
- 0.67, already in decimal form
- 2/3 = 0.67 (this is the same as the previous number)
- 0.600, already in decimal form
- 65% = 0.65 (percentage divided by 100)
Step 2: Compare each number to the midpoint (1):
- 0.600 is the closest to 1.
- 0.67 is as close to 1 as the previous number, so it comes after it.
- 0.67 is already in the list, so we ignore it.
- 0.65 is closer to 1 than 0.67, so it comes after it.
Therefore, the correct order is: 0.600, 2/3, 0.67, 65%.
