Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this expression, we can use PEMDAS or order of operations.

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication>Division (Depends on which comes first from left to right)

Addition>Subtraction (See Multiplication>Division)

So First, lets solve the Parenthesis. -2/5=-.4

So now, our equation is -3/-.4

There is no exponents or multiplication, so lets just Divide.

-3/-.4=7.5

The solution is 7.5

Hope this helps!

Mason was ordering the following rational numbers in math class: -3.3, -15, -8 8/9.

lana [24]

Answer:

a) order the number from least to greatest

8/9> -3.3 > -8 > -15

b) absolute value

|8/9| = 8/9

|-3.3| = 3.3

|-8| = 8

|-15| = 15

order 15 > 8 > 3.3 > 8/9

c) difference in the order in part (a) and (b) is because larger value with negative sign is the smallest.
