Question

Which is more 1/4 or 0.4

Answer 1

1/4 is 25%
and 0.4 is 40%
Therefore, 0.4 is greater.

Answer 2

we have

`(1)/(4) \\ \\0.4`

we know that

`0.4=(4)/(10)`

Multiply by
`(2)/(2)`

`(4)/(10)*(2)/(2)=(8)/(20)`

Multiply the number
`(1)/(4)` by
`(5)/(5)`

`(1)/(4)*(5)/(5)=(5)/(20)`

I proceed to compare both numbers with the same denominator.

so

`(8)/(20) > (5)/(20)`

therefore

the answer is

`0.4 > (1)/(4)`
