3.9?

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

Alright Haha Thank You!

OpenStudy (phi):

Is -3.9 closer to -3 or to -4 ?

OpenStudy (phi):

notice your dot is close to -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its actually 2.9.. it doesn't quite reach the 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey i know this is off topic but i go to k12 too

OpenStudy (phi):

but to the right of -3. to the right is more positive.

OpenStudy (hayleymeyer):

oh i got it phl! XD. i forgot..

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

Okay! so the answer is -0.3?

OpenStudy (phi):

-0.3 is closer to 0 than to -1 your dot is close to -3

OpenStudy (phi):

as you move to the left, from 0, you go -1,-2,-3, and so on your dot is between -2 and -3 -2.1 would be a little to the left of -2 -2.5 would be exactly between -2 and -3
