Question

-2.05 is greater or less than -2.50​

Answer 1

Answer:

greater than

-2.05 > -2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

remember, a decimal is another way of writing a fraction so we can say

-2.05

= -2 $\frac{5}{100}$

-2.50

= -2 $\frac{50}{100}$

for the sake of this problem I am not going to simplify

Also remember, the greater a negative value is, the less is amounts to.

Think of it like debt. One owing 2.05 dollars is less than one owing 2.50 dollars

Hence we can say

-2 $\frac{5}{100}$ > 2 $\frac{50}{100}$

Answer 2

less than is the answer
