Question

Examine where the two fractions are plotted on the number line.

Answer 1

The following statements are true:

1. One-fourth greater-than negative one-fourth.

(Positive numbers are bigger than negative numbers.)

$0.25 > -0.25$

2.Negative one-fourth less-than one-fourth. (This is basically the same thing as the first sentence)

$-0.25 < 0.25$

-1/4 is not equal to 1/4.

And as previously mentioned, positive numbers are always bigger than negative numbers.
