Question

Compare the decimals 9,135.40 and 9,135.4.

Which comparison is correct?

A.
9,135.40 < 9,135.4

B.
9,135.40 > 9,135.4

C.
9,135.40 = 9,135.4

Answer 1

It would be C, because 9,135.40 and 9,135.4 have all the same numbers, except 9,135.40 has a zero at the end.
But when there is something like this.
9,135.40
9,135.4
You put a little invisible zero where a number should be.
So now it looks like this.
9,135.40
9,135.40
So, they would be equal. Hope this helped!

Answer 2

C.
9,135.40 = 9,135.4
