Write a number with one decimal place,that is bigger than 6 4/5 but smaller than 7 how can I solve this

Answer 1

Hello!

The easiest way to solve this would be to convert 6 4/5 to a decimal. We know that to convert a fraction to a decimal, we must divide the numerator by the denominator.

4 / 5 = 0.8

0.8 + 6 = 6.8

So, 6 4/5 is 6.8 as a decimal.

See how it's easier now that we've converted the mixed number to a decimal?

There could be many numbers between 6.8 and 7. Some examples are:

6.81, 6.82, 6.83, 6.9, etc.
