I think the easiest way to think about this is to put 0.25 into fractional form. 0.25 = 1/4 because 4 divided into 1 = 0.25
So 1/4 added to 2/9 will give us a fraction (rational number). Of course to determine what the fraction is, we have to get a common denominator.
(In case you wanted to know what that rational number is: The least common denominator would be 36. So changing 1/4 by multiplying top and bottom by 9 gives 9/36 and changing 2/9 by multiplying top and bottom by 4/4 gives 8/36 and adding 9/36 to 8/36 gives 17/36 - a rational number.)
D. think about it this way. the closer it is to decimal, the closer it is to a whole number which is the "biggest"
Answer:
3x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Three times a number is at most negative six
3 times a number would be 3 times x, is means the equal sign (=)
3x = - 6
