\huge\text{\bf Hey there!}


\huge\text{GUIDE} \ \boxed{\downarrow}\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{>: is \ \bf greater \ than }}\\\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{<: is \bf \ less\ than}}\\\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{\geq: is \ \bf greater\ than\ or\ equal\ to}}\\\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{\leq: is\ \bf less\ than\ or\ equal\ to}}\\\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{=: is \ \bf equal \ to}}


\huge\text{GUIDE \#2}\ \boxed{\downarrow}\\\large\text{When you are working with greater than, you're basically shows}\\\large\text{when a number is BIGGER than the other number.}\\\\\large\text{When you are working with less than you are finding the opposite}\\\large\text{of greater than. (it shows when a number is SMALLER than the}\\\large\text{number.)}


\\\large\text{When you are working with greater than or equal to, you are }\\\large\text{basically finding out if the number is greater or equal to the other }\\\large\text{number.}\\\\\large\text{When you are working with less than or equal to you are trying to}\\\large\text{figure out if your number is less than or equal to the other}\\\large\text{number.}


\huge\text{ANSWERING YOUR GIVEN QUESTION}\ \boxed{\downarrow}


\large\boxed{\rm{-0.75 \ ? \ -(3)/(4)}}


\large\text{I'm going to make this easier to solve for you. I will convert the}\\\large\text{fraction }(\rm{-(3)/(4)})\large\text{ into a decimal. To do so, you have to DIVIDE the}\\\large\text{numerator (the number on TOP) from the denominator (the}\\\large\text{BOTTOM number)}


\large\text{REMEMBER }\textbf{!}\\\large\text{Negatives are BELOW zero. (including decimals \&amp; fractions).}\\\\\large\text{Positives are ABOVE zero}


\large\boxed{{\mathsf{- (3)/(4)}}}\\\\\\\large\boxed{\mathsf{\rightarrow - 3/ 4}}\\\\\\\large\boxed{\rightarrow\mathsf{-0.75}}


\large\text{Therefore, -0.75 and }\rm{-(3)/(4)}\large\text{ are equivalent to each other}


\huge\boxed{\text{Therefore, your answer is: }}\ \huge\boxed{\mathsf{-0.75 \bold{\ =} -(3)/(4)}}\huge\checkmark


\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \&amp; enjoy your day!}
