Question

Order the set of numbers from least to greatest: 2.71 repeating 71, 2 and 3 over 4, square root 5, 5 over 2

Answer 1

`√(5);\frac{5}2;2.71;2\frac{3}4`

Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

The numbers which we have to arrange from least to greatest are:

1.→2.717171.......71.....

`2 \rightarrow 2 (3)/(4)=(11)/(4)\\\\=2.75`

3. √5=2.2360

`4.\rightarrow (5)/(2)=2.5`

Ascending order of the four numbers are

`√(5)<(5)/(2)<2.717171......<2.75`
