'One third' as a decimal is 1 ÷ 3 = 0.333333..... ⇒ The decimal is recurring
'One fifth' as decimal is 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2 ⇒ The decimal terminates at the tenth value
'One seventh' as decimal 1 ÷ 7 = 0.142857142857.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring for every digit between 1 and 7
'One ninth' as decimal 1 ÷ 9 = 0.111111.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring
Answer: one fifth
7/9 is greater because if you divide the fraction you will get 0.77777777...
(Which will go on forever)
compare:
(< or >)
0.7 ? 0.6
Well, by looking at both of them, you can easily tell that 0.7 is greater and 0.7=7/9, therefore, 7/9 is greater
For example you can take the number 7 7 7 7
(7)77{7}
The first seven is the greatest it's 7,000
The last seven is the least its 7
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
