Question

Order the set of numbers from least to greatest: -5/6, -5, -26 squared, -31/6

Answer 1

Do you know how to turn them into decimals?

Answer 2

No

Answer 3

Just divide the top number by the bottom number. But be careful, we have negatives. A negative divided by a positive is a negative. So -31/6 is actually -31 divided by six.

Answer 4

So that's -5.1?

Answer 5

Correct :)

Answer 6

And -5/6 would just be -0.8?

Answer 7

Yup! You're catching on now :)

Answer 8

Now the last step is to place them in order from least to greatest.

Answer 9

-26, -5, -5.1, -0.8?

Answer 10

It's actually the other way around because if you have a number line, -26 is the furthest away from zero. So basically, it's -0.8,-5,-5.1 and -26.

Answer 11

But because it's negitives, I thought that the bigger numbers were smaller :/

Answer 12

Oh my god, I'm sorry DX I misunderstood. I was thinking in the back of my mind "greatest to least". Therefore, you are right.

Answer 13

Yay I feel smart though :D xD

Would you be able to help me with a few other problems?

Answer 14

Yeah sure :)

Answer 15

Identify the number that does not belong with the other three. Explain your reasoning. \[50.11...\] \[-\frac{ 50 }{ 2 }, -50.1, \sqrt{50}\]

Answer 16

You said identify the number that does not belong with the other Three; that means there must be four, right?

Answer 17

omg I'm slow, ain't I? I just figured it out. Nvm

Answer 18

It's fine xD

Answer 19

Okay, so we have 50.11, -25, -50.1, and 7. I would say \[\sqrt{50}\] may be the answer.

Answer 20

But why?

Answer 21

Because it's a low number from the rest of them.

Answer 22

Just my opinion, but I do think it may be the answer.

Answer 23

Okay thank you c:
