When we divide a number by a bigger number, the result will be always less than 1, in this case, we are dividing 7 by 11, (7/11) which can be approximated to 0.63:


(7)/(11)=0.63

On the other hand, we have 6.2 multiplied by ten which is then multiplied by 10,like this:


6.2*10*10=62*10=620

Now, as we know, 0.63 is less than 620, we can express that like this:


0.63<620

then


(7)/(11)<6.2*10*10
