Question

Why is 6 is greater than 5/8 but less than 70

Answer 1

6 is greatwr than5/8 but less than 70 because 5/8 isn't a whole number like 6 and is less than 70 because 7 is more than 5 and since 5/8 isn't a whole number it is less than 70

Answer 2

6 is a whole number and 5/8 is a fraction
Fractions are parts of a whole number
So a fraction is smaller than any whole number
Thats why 6 is greater than 5/8
6 is a number that is in the ones place
Once the ones place is full up the number 9 and is about to go to 10 it goes to the tens place
So anything that is in the tens place is greater than a number in the ones place
6 is in the ones place
70 is in the tens place
Thats why 6 is less than 70
