Question

Order the following numbers from least to greatest:

Option 1: 1.09
Option 2: 1.13
Option 3: 1.22
Option 4: 1.3

Answer 1

To order the numbers 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, and 1.3 from least to greatest, you compare each digit starting from the left. The sequence from least to greatest is 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, 1.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to order the following numbers from least to greatest: 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, and 1.3. To compare these values, you can look at the digits one place at a time from left to right. Starting with the digits in the ones place, all the numbers are equal because they all have 1. Next, look at the tenths place, and the number with the smallest digit in the tenths place is the smallest number overall. Then you proceed to compare the hundredths place for any remaining numbers with the same digit in the tenths place.

1. 1.09: It has a 0 in the tenths place, which is the smallest of the next highest digit among the options provided.
2. 1.13: Following 1.09, 1.13 has the next smallest hundredths place digit.
3. 1.22: After 1.13, we have 1.22, which has a digit larger in the hundredths place than 1.13.
4. 1.3: Finally, 1.3 is actually equal to 1.30 when comparing decimal places, which makes it the largest number.

Therefore, when you order the given numbers from least to greatest, it is: 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, 1.3.

Answer 2

To order the numbers 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, and 1.3 from least to greatest, compare the decimal parts and recognize that 1.3 is equal to 1.30. The ordered sequence is 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, 1.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To order the following numbers from least to greatest: 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, 1.3, we start by comparing the numbers after the decimal point.

1. 1.09: It has two digits after the decimal, with '09' as the decimal part.
2. 1.13: It also has two digits after the decimal, with '13' as the decimal part.
3. 1.22: This one has '22' after the decimal, two digits as well.
4. 1.3: While it may seem less because it has only one digit after the decimal, remember that '1.3' is the same as '1.30'.

Now we place them in order, with the smallest decimal part first.

1. 1.09
2. 1.13
3. 1.22
4. 1.3 (equivalent to 1.30)

So, the numbers from least to greatest are: 1.09, 1.13, 1.22, 1.3.
