Answer:

No, 0.158 is not greater than 0.58.

Explanation:

We are asked to determine whether 0.158 is greater than 0.58 or not.

We can see that 0.158 has one tenths, 5 hundredths and 8 thousandths.

While 0.58 has 5 tenths and 8 hundredths.

When we round both numbers to nearest tenth place, we will get:


0.158\approx 0.2


0.58\approx 0.6

Therefore, 0.158 is less than 0.58.
