Answer:
14) false
15) false
Step-by-step explanation:
14) 120% of a positive whole number is always greater than the number. If the number is 1, 120% of it would give us 1.2 which is greater than 1. However if the number is a negative whole number, 120% of it would give us a smaller number. Let's try -1. 120% of -1 would give us -1.2, which is smaller than -1. Hence the statement is false.
15) 0.5% of a number is 0.5/100 of the number so we should multiply the number by 5/1000. 5/100 is only 5% of the number. Hence the statement is also false.
<span>If we are to compare which among the given fractions is smaller, we first determine the decimal equivalent of each. If we are to solve for those, we determine that 3/4 is equal to 0.75 and 1/4 is equal to 0.25. This is done by dividing the numerator by the denominator. Comparing 0.75 and 0.25, we can conclude that 0.75 or 3/4 is greater compared to 0.25 or 1/4. </span>
