Keep going until you have only one number left. That's the smallest one,
out of the entire original list.
In the example you gave, the smallest digit in the first place after the decimal point
is the '0', and choice-'C' is the only one that has it. So choice-'C' is the least, and
you don't need to go any farther.
Here's another one to practice on. It needs the whole procedure that I wrote out,
but now it should be easy for you:
0.1234607
0.1234915
0.1234095
0.1234017
0.1234184
0.1234521
Since there is no options, i will list several reasons that help bloggers decide how to present information :
- Audience expectation
- Blogger's point of view and personal principle
- The actual fact that blogger has
On the number line add in the numbers or variables given to you and list them in order on the number line from least to greatest
Principal Amount = P = $250
Interest Rate = r = 9% = 0.09
Time in years = t = 15 years
Value of investment = A = ?
The formula to calculate the value on investment as a result of annual interest is:
Using the values in the above formula, we get:
Thus, at the end of 15 years the value of the investment will be $ 910.62.
