Answer 2

Negative 1 and two-thirds

Explanation:

We need to tell which number is less than –1.5. 0 is at origin. Any number less than 0 have less value or negative value and any value greater than 0 is a positive value.

`-1(1)/(3)=(-4)/(3)=-1.34`

And

`-1(2)/(3)=-1.67`

It can be seen from the figure that 0 is greater than -1.5, -1.34 and -1.67

-1.34 is greater than -1.5 and -1.5 is greater than -1.67. It means that -.67 is less than -1.5.

Hence, the correct option is 4 i.e. Negative 1 and two-thirds
