Answer:

Nope

Explanation:

Think of it like this:

forget the 5 in the THOUSANDTHS place because thats basically, well you can think of it as the ones place now lets look at both of their HUNDREDTHS place.

0.72 and 0.75 which one do you think is greater now? Obviously the 0.75! So just line them up and see if its greater and whatnot.
