Answer:
Gertrude, Bart, Hermione, Jojo
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok to start of lets identify the money in each bank account
<em> I will not be using names to make this simpler. </em>
Student A: $-100.54
Student B: $95.88
Student C: $50.00
Student D: $-120.37
Lets pretend that were not talking about money to help you understand this.
So just from glancing at this you'd think -120.37 would be the most because its the largest number correct?
Well you have to include the negative sign. The negative sign shows that this number is below 0.
Lets take a look at the other negative number.
-100.54
Greater or less than -120.37?
-100.54 is actually greater than -120.37
Why?
On a number line, the negative side, your counting <em>back </em>from 0. So the farther away you are from 0 for negatives, the less that number is.
So -120.37 would be the least and -100.54 would be the second least.
The greatest would be 95.88 because its greater than 50.
So the order would be 95.88, 50, -100.54, then -120.37
Just find which students that goes with and your done!
