Firstly you need to to reduce to a common denominator by multiplYing the whole fraction. This way you have to multiply 4/5 by 2 (both numerator and denominator). so 4/5 = 8/10. And now you have 8/10 and 9/10. You compare only numerators. This way you have 8/10 <9/10. Same goes for 2/3 and 5/8. Only here you need to multiply both fractions. The common denominator here is 24. So you have to multiply 2/3 by 8 and 5/8 by 3. You now have to compare 16/24 and 15/24. 16/24>15/24.

25 lb greater or less than 384 oz

NeTakaya

25 lbs would be greater than 384 oz because 384 divided by 16 (because 16 oz per lb) =24lbs
so 25lbs > 384 oz

Order the following numbers from least to greatest.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

-5.5 $-\sqrt{20}$ $\sqrt4$ $\frac{22}{7}$ 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The numbers to order from least to greatest is given as:

$-5.5, 4.5, 22/7,\sqrt4,-\sqrt{20}$

In order to compare these numbers, we have to convert them in same form.

Let us simplify each number in decimal form.

$-5.5 = -5.5\\\\4.5=4.5\\\\\frac{22}{7}=3.14\\\\\sqrt4=2\\\\-\sqrt{20}=-\sqrt{5\times 2^2}=-2\sqrt5=-4.47$

So, the least number is one which has the largest value with a negative sign.

Here, -5.5 is the least number.

The next smallest number is -4.47. So, $-\sqrt{20}$

The next smallest number is 2. So, $\sqrt4$

The next smallest number is 3.14. So, $\frac{22}{7}$

The greatest number is 4.5.

Therefore, the order from the least to greatest is:

-5.5 < $-\sqrt{20}$ < $\sqrt4$ < $\frac{22}{7}$ < 4.5

If total liabilities decreased by $60,000 and stockholders' equity increased by $20,000 during a period of time, then total asse

Lena [83]

Answer:

$40,000 decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Change in total assets = Total Liabilities Decreased- StockHolders' equity increased

Change in total assets = 60000 - 20000

Change in total assets = $40,000 decrease

So, If total liabilities decreased by $60,000 and stockholders' equity increased by $20,000 during a period of time,then the change in total assets will consist of a decrease of $40,000
