Question

how do the values compare ? order the values from greatest to least 3/4 , - 1 3/4 , -1 1/4, - 2 1/4, 2 1/4, 1 1/4

Answer 1

Answer:

The order of the values from greatest to least are as

$\frac{21}{4} > \frac{11}{4} > \frac{3}{4} > \frac{-11}{4} > \frac{-13}{4} > \frac{-21}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative number goes on decreasing in this way as -1,-2,-3,-4,-5... and so on.

So,-11 > -13 > -21

Here the denominator is same and the numerator is in decreasing order i.e greatest to the least that is 21 > 11 > 3 > -11 > -13 >-21 .Therefore, the order is

$\frac{21}{4} > \frac{11}{4} > \frac{3}{4} > \frac{-11}{4} > \frac{-13}{4} > \frac{-21}{4}$
