Step-by-step explanation:
1.
⅜ (?) 0.295 Convert ⅜ to a decimal fraction
0.375 (?) 0.295
We can use a <em>number line</em> to decide which number is greater.
In Fig. 1 below, when we go from 0.295 to 0.375, we are moving to the <em>RIGHT</em>, so 0.375 is greater than 0.295.
0.375 > 0.295
2.
-0.770 (?) -4/5 Convert ⅘ to a decimal fraction
-0.770 (?) -0.800
In Fig. 2 below, when we go from -0.80 to -0.77, we are moving to the <em>RIGHT</em>, so -0.770 is greater than -0.800.
-0.770 > -0.800
