Compare Two Decimal Numbers: Greater Than Challenge

Question

Which decimal number is greater?

00:00 Which number is bigger?

00:03 Let's compare the digits between the numbers

00:08 The digit 4 is bigger than 3, therefore this number is bigger

00:13 And this is the solution to the question

Let's first convert the decimal numbers into simple fractions and compare them:

0.45 is divided by 100 because there are two digits after the decimal point, therefore:

$0.45=\frac{45}{100}$

0.35 is divided by 100 because there are two digits after the decimal point, therefore:

$0.35=\frac{35}{100}$

Let's now compare the numbers in the numerator:

$\frac{45}{100}>\frac{35}{100}$

Therefore, the larger number is 0.45.

$0.45$
