Question #fc8f0

Answer 1

`0.89 > 0.884`

Explanation:

Write them with the same number of decimal places to make the comparison easier.

`0.89" " =0.8color(blue)(9)0`
`0.884" "=0.8color(blue)(8)4`

Now compare each decimal places:

First d.p.: tenths: they are equal
Second d.p.: hundredths `9>8`

Therefore the top number is bigger.

You can also compare the number of thousandths:

`890/1000 > 884/1000` because `890 >884`
