Compare Decimals on Number Line: 0.69 and 0.7 Relationship

Question

Determine the appropriate sign (?) according to the number line:

$0.69?0.7$

00:06 First, let's set the correct sign for our problem.

00:10 We'll use a number line to locate our two numbers.

00:13 If a number is to the left of another, it's smaller. To the right, it's larger.

00:19 Let's find our number's position compared to the second number.

00:23 And that's how we solve this question!

First, let's observe the number 0.7.

We'll add a 0 on the end of it to better compare it to 0.69:

$0.7=0.70$

Now, if we look at the numbers after the decimal point, we can observe that:

$0.69<0.70$
