247- 538 = -291
If you line them up in that order 247 you'll have to borrow. Your answer would be -291
-538
The only way to not get -291 is to flip the two numbers.
Answer:
12.252, 12.26, 12.387, 12.4
Step-by-step explanation:
These are the only numbers in a series that are always increasing.
The first series (0.13, 0.31, 0.04, 0.5) and fourth series (6.009, 6.015, 6.241, 6.2) all have an area where they decrease (0.04 and 6.2 respectively).
The second series of numbers is in decreasing order, rather than increasing order. This can not be the answer.
The answer to your question is 10 2/5

the idea being, you multiply the "x" by some power of 10 that moves the repeating part to the left of the decimal point and the split it like above.
