Question

Which is greater?
(i) $$0.5 \ or \ 0.05$$
(ii) $$7 \ or \ 0.7$$
(iii) $$2.03 \ or \ 2.30$$
(iv) $$0.8 \ or \ 0.88$$

Answer 1

(i) $$0.5 \ or\ 0.05$$
Converting into like decimals
$$0.50 \ and \ 0.05$$
$$50>05$$
$$0.5>0.05$$
(ii) $$7 \ or \ 0.7$$
Comparing integral parts
$$7>0$$
$$7>0.7$$
(iii) $$2.03 \ or \ 2.30$$
Integral numbers are same
But in decimal part
$$03<30$$
$$2.30>2.03$$
(iv) $$0.8 \ or \ 0.88$$
Converting into like decimal
$$0.8= 0.80$$
$$88>80$$
$$0.88> 0.8$$
