Question

A set of numbers is given below.

{v/72 9.25, /83, pi 2 8.7}
Which list correctly orders the numbers from least to greatest

Answer 1

Option (2)

Explanation:

From the given set of numbers we have to arrange them in the increasing order.

{
`√(72),9.25,√(83),\pi^2,8.7`}

Since,
`√(72)=8.49`

`√(83)=9.11`

`\pi ^2` = 9.87

Therefore, set of numbers will be in the form of,

{8.49, 9.25, 9.11, 9.87, 8.7}

Now arranging these numbers in the increasing order,

8.49 < 8.7 < 9.11 < 9.25 < 9.87

Therefore, numbers in the increasing order will be,

{
`√(72),8.7,√(83),9.25,\pi ^(2)`}

Option (2) will be the answer.
