Question

Which of the following numbers are less than 9/4?

Choose all that apply:

A= 11/4
B= 15/8
C= 2.201

Answer 1

Its definitely c because i know

Answer 2

OPTION B.

OPTION C.

Explanation:

In order to know which numbers are less than
`(9)/(4)`, you can convert this fraction into a decimal number. To do this, you need to divide the numerator 9 by the denominator 4. Then:

`(9)/(4)=2.25`

Now you need convert the fractions provided in the Options A and B into decimal numbers by applying the same procedure. This are:

Option A→
`(11)/(4)=2.75` (It is not less than 2.25)

Option B→
`(15)/(8)=1.875` (It is less than 2.25)

The number shown in Option C is already expressed in decimal form:

Option C→
`2.201` (It is less than 2.25)
