@The_Mobster @Afrodiddle @EmmanuelRocksYou do you know the answer to this

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

lets put this on a chart.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

Is the negative fraction the greatest number or the least?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea just change them to percents first. remember Top divided by Bottom

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

no need to complicate things o.o

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

It's least to great and yes it's a negative fraction

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

there is only one negative fraction

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

so. Is it least or greatest?

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

yes

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

That fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats not complicated @Afrodiddle

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@EmmanuelRocksYou It's not work that is needed to be done.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then let me show you

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@EmmanuelRocksYou It can be done but is not needed.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@Cookie_2046 I was asking if the negative fraction is the least or most.

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

least

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3/5 = 0.6, -5/7 = -0.10, 2/9 =0.10

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

Good, so that is first on your line.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

Which means that it can only be C or D.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

out of 3/5 and 2/9 which is more than half?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you just you decimals i order, no that hard -5/7, 2/9, 3/5

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

2/9

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

no.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

MORE than half

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

opps i put the wrong one

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

it's C

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Told you, that is correct

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

You needed to use the process of elimination for that. @EmmanuelRocksYou the decimals were not needed.

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

Thxs guys

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but they make it easier lol

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

no... you made cookie do extra work o.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its very simple calm yourself please its not hard

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@EmmanuelRocksYou You turn fractions into decimals when it is things such as 20% 0.8 and 3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the value is the same if you didnt know that

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@EmmanuelRocksYou ? lol calm yourself. Your reading my text in an aggravated tone. I am calm.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its ok just breathe a little

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

@EmmanuelRocksYou I was just saying that it is not needed.

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And i was saying it is useful

OpenStudy (afrodiddle):

also D: don't give the answer, let them solve it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
