Question

Complete the statements about the following numbers: 2/7, 0.1, 0.9, 6/8. Use the + and - buttons to change how many ticks are displayed. The number represents the amount of even segments between 0 and 1. The point closest to the benchmark 1 is at The point closest to the benchmark O is at How would you order these fractions and decimals from least to greatest? Click or tap and drag to move the dot along the number line. 1 B 2 2 +

Answer 1

To solve the exercise it is easier to convert all the given points to decimals. So,

`(2)/(7)=0.23`
`(6)/(8)=0.75`

Then,

*The point closest to the benchmark 1 is at 0.9.

*The point closest to the benchmark 0 is 0.1.

*Ordering these points from least to greatest you have:

`\begin{gathered} 0.1 \\ 0.23=(2)/(7) \\ 0.75=(6)/(8) \\ 0.9 \end{gathered}`
