Answer 2

Order from greatest to least is 2.5, $1\frac{3}{4}$ and 1.5 and -2

Solution:

Given that numbers are 1.5, $1\frac{3}{4}$ and 2.5 and -2

We have to arrange the numbers from greatest to least, Which means descending order

As we can see, numbers are in different forms, let us convert all of them into decimal form.

converting $1\frac{3}{4}$ to decimal form we get,

$1 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{4 \times 1+3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}=1.75$

Now the given numbers are 1.5, 1.75, 2.5, -2

By comparing we get,

2.5 > 1.75 > 1.5 > -2

Hence, the order of given numbers is 2.5, $1\frac{3}{4}$ and 1.5 and -2
