It is this but it keeps going up.
For this case we have the following expression:

We note that, we have a 4-digit number divided by a number of 1 digit other than 1.
Therefore, the answer must be at least 3 digits.
Thus, the first number of the quotient is located in hundreds place.
To verify this answer, we make the division with a calculator:

We observe that indeed, the first number of the quotient is located in hundreds place.
Answer:
the first number of the quotient is located in hundreds place
Answer:
24 > 17 1/2 > 6.9 > 2 > 1.45 > - 1/4 > - 5.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following temperature values :
2, 6.9, 17 1/2 , −5.1, 24, − 1/4 , and 1.45.
Ordering the values above from greatest to least ; (descending order)
Expressing all temperature values in the same format :
Let's make sure all values are in decimal to make comparison easier :
2.0
6.9
17 1/2 = 35/2 = 17.5
-5.1
24.0
-1/4 = - 0.25
1.45
We begin from the temperature value which is highest :
24 > 17.5 > 6.9 > 2.0 > 1.45 > - 0.25 > - 5.1
Hence ;
24 > 17 1/2 > 6.9 > 2 > 1.45 > - 1/4 > - 5.1
