Answer:

<h2><em>-12 is greater than -24 </em></h2><h2><em>or </em></h2><h2><em>-12 > -24</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of a number line, 0 being the middle point separating positive numbers on the right, and negative numbers on the left. The farther left you go down the number line, the smaller the numbers get in value.

With -12 being closer to 0, and -24 being farther down, which makes -24's value decrease. Which therefore makes it smaller.

You convert a decimal to a fraction by putting the digits to the right of the decimal point over "1" followed by the same number of zeros. (Most folks learn this in 3rd or 4th grade.)

0.66 = 66/100 . . . . . 2 decimals, so the denominator is 100

Then you reduce the fraction by canceling common factors. It helps to know your times tables and divisibility rules. (Or you can have your calculator do it.)

0.66 = 66/100 = 33/50
1.00 = 100/100 = 1
