Understand the problem

Organise the following values into two groups of values less than 10% and values greater than 10%:

Step-by-step solution

To solve this problem, we'll convert each value to a decimal and compare it with 0.100.10 (which represents 10%10\%):

  • Convert 19%19\% to a decimal: 19%=0.1919\% = 0.19. Compare with 0.100.10; 0.19>0.100.19 > 0.10.

  • 0.90.9 is already a decimal. Compare directly: 0.9>0.100.9 > 0.10.

  • 0.090.09 is already a decimal. Compare directly: 0.09<0.100.09 < 0.10.

  • Convert 19100\frac{19}{100} to a decimal: 19100=0.19\frac{19}{100} = 0.19. Compare with 0.100.10; 0.19>0.100.19 > 0.10.

  • Convert 111\frac{1}{11} to a decimal: 1110.0909\frac{1}{11} \approx 0.0909. Compare with 0.100.10; 0.0909<0.100.0909 < 0.10.

Thus, the values can be grouped as follows:

Values less than 10%10\%: 0.09,1110.09, \frac{1}{11}.

Values greater than 10%10\%: 0.9,19100,19%0.9, \frac{19}{100}, 19\%.

The solution involves accurate conversion and comparison:

Therefore, the correct grouping is:

0.09,111<10%0.09, \frac{1}{11}<10\%

0.9,19100,19%>10% 0.9, \frac{19}{100}, 19\% > 10\%

3

Final Answer

0.09,111<10% 0.09,\frac{1}{11}<10\%

0.9,19100,19%>10% 0.9,\frac{19}{100},19\%>10\%
