Step-by-step solution

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

0.25 is divided by 100 because there are two digits after the decimal point, so:

0.25=25100 0.25=\frac{25}{100}

0.26 is divided by 100 because there are two digits after the decimal point, so:

0.26=26100 0.26=\frac{26}{100}

Now let's compare the numbers in the numerator:

26100>25100 \frac{26}{100}>\frac{25}{100}

Therefore, the larger number is 0.26.
