Compare Numbers with 6/7: Sorting Decimals, Percentages, and Fractions

Question

Organise the following into two groups of parts smaller than

67 \frac{6}{7} and parts larger than 67 \frac{6}{7} :

84%,10%,0.4,1450,0.9 84\%,10\%,0.4,\frac{14}{50},0.9

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we will convert all given values into decimals to compare with 67\frac{6}{7}.

Step 1: Convert 67\frac{6}{7} into a decimal.
Calculate 670.857\frac{6}{7} \approx 0.857.

Step 2: Convert each value into a decimal.
- 84% = 0.84.
- 10% = 0.10.
- 0.4 is already a decimal.
- 1450=0.28\frac{14}{50} = 0.28.
- 0.9 is already a decimal.

Step 3: Compare each value to 67\frac{6}{7}.
- 0.84<0.8570.84 < 0.857, so 84% is less than 67\frac{6}{7}.
- 0.10<0.8570.10 < 0.857, so 10% is less than 67\frac{6}{7}.
- 0.4<0.8570.4 < 0.857, so 0.4 is less than 67\frac{6}{7}.
- 0.28<0.8570.28 < 0.857, so 1450\frac{14}{50} is less than 67\frac{6}{7}.
- 0.9>0.8570.9 > 0.857, so 0.9 is greater than 67\frac{6}{7}.

Therefore, the solution is:

84\%,\frac{14}{50},0.4,10\%<\frac{6}{7}

0.9>\frac{6}{7}

Answer

84\%,\frac{14}{50},0.4,10\%<\frac{6}{7}

0.9>\frac{6}{7}
