Which is greater 0.15 or 1/5

1 answer:

6 0

In order to do this we need to make them both fractions, or both decimals. It's much easier to make them both decimals, as you can get $\frac{1}{5}$ into decimal form by simply dividing 1 by 5.
$1 / 5 = .20$
If 1/5 = .20, then 1/5 is greater than .15!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Jean = \frac{2}{3}$

$Terry = \frac{1}{3}$

$Steve = \frac{1}{5}$

Required

Represent them on number line

Start by getting the LCM of the denominators of the three fractions;

The denominator are: 3 and 5

$LCM = 15$

This means that, the number line will be divided into 15 partitions;

Next, we get the position of each fraction as follows;

$Jean = \frac{2}{3} * 15$

$Jean = \frac{30}{3}$

$Jean = 10$

Jean will be represented on the 10th point

$Terry = \frac{1}{3} * 15$

$Terry = \frac{15}{3}$

$Terry = 5$

Terry will be represented on the 5th point

$Steve = \frac{1}{5} * 15$

$Steve = \frac{15}{5}$

$Steve = 3$

Steve will be represented on the 3rd point

In the point (3,-2), what is the x-value? Which quadrant is this point located?

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-value is 3. Coordinate pairs are labeled as (x, y). In this case, the 3 is in the x position.

The point is located in the 4th quadrant. Quadrant labels move counter-clockwise, from 1 to 4 as shown below. In Quadrant 4, the x-value will always be positive, and the y-value will always be negative. This point has a positive x-value and negative y-value, so it is in this quadrant.
