Question

Arrange in order of least to greatest:1.4, 0, 0.14, 1/4, 1, - 1/4

Answer 1

`-(1)/(4),\text{ 0, 0.14, }(1)/(4),\text{ 1, 1.4}`

Step-by-step explanation

We have the numbers:

`1.4,\text{ 0, 0.14, }(1)/(4),\text{ 1, -}(1)/(4)`

To arrange them in order of least to greatest, let us convert all the numbers to decimal.

We have:

`\Rightarrow\text{ 1.4, 0, 0.14, 0.25, 1, -0.25}`

Now, we can arrange them.

The negative number will be the least because it is less than positive numbers and even 0 in value.

Then, they will be folowed by 0 and then the positive numbers.

That is:

`-0.25,\text{ 0, 0.14, 0.25, 1, 1.4}`

So, the correct order is:

`-(1)/(4),\text{ 0, 0.14, }(1)/(4),\text{ 1, 1.4}`
