Question

Does 1/6, -3, V7, -6/5 or 4.5 come first when the numbers are listed from least to greatest? Explain.

Answer 1

Greetings from Brasil...

Let's look at each number

1/6 = 1 ÷ 6 = 0.16666....

- 3 = - 3

√7:

√4 < √7 < √9, so

2 < √7 < 3   the result of √7 is between 2 and 3

-6/5 = (- 6) ÷ 5 or 6 ÷ (- 5) = - 1.2

4.5 = 4.5

Writing the numbers in ascending order can tell:

- 3; - 6/5; 1/6; √7 and 4.5

or (same values - approximated values):

- 3; - 1.2; 0.2; 2.5 and 4.5

Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given numbers:

1/6, -3, √7, -6/5, 4.5

The smallest one is chosen between the two negatives as all the rest are greater.

• - 3 is smaller than - 6/5= -1.2 as 3 > 1.2

So the answer is -3
