Question 10: 2/5 < 1/2
Question 11: 2/8 < 1/3
The area equals length time width so 7.5 times 5.3 = 39.75.
It very well could be, but not necessarily. What if q = 10, s = 8, and t = 6?
The statement is that q is less than s, and s is less than t (which therefore also means q is less than t).
However, when we substitute (replace) all the letters with the values we assigned them, we can find that the expression becomes:
10 < 8 < 6
This clearly isn’t right, as 10 is the greatest number there, and 8 is definitely less than 10 and greater than 6.
