Answer:

$\frac{-2}{9}$ > -0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the below mentioned question in the picture:

We have to compare the value of $\displaystyle\frac{-2}{9}~ \& -0.23$ .

We have to fill in appropriate sign.

In order to do so first, we evaluate the value of given fraction $\frac{-2}{9}$ .

It's value is -0.22222222.

If we compare both the value, then, -0.22222222 is always greater than -0.23.

Thus, the appropriate sign to fill the given blank is > as,

-0.22222222 > -0.23
