<h3>
Answer: 0.157</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
Convert the fraction 9/50 to decimal form. You can use either long division or a calculator.
You should find that 9/50 = 0.18 which is the same as 0.180
So the original compound inequality is the same as saying 0.125 < x < 0.180
This tells us that x is between 0.125 and 0.180 where x is not equal to either endpoint. We simply need to pick anything in this interval. It can be anything you want (I recommend to use a number line to help pick a value). One such value is 0.157. There are infinitely many values you can select from.
The number 0.157 is between 0.125 and 0.180, ie 0.125 < 0.157 < 0.180
It's very similar to saying 157 is between 125 and 180, ie 125 < 157 < 180.
