The range of numbers in which the missing number should be is between 22 and 25
The only number among the answers that falls within this range is 24
Therefore, the correct answer is 0.24
Which decimal number is greater?
The inequality uses < (less than), not ≤ (less than or equal to). This means the number must be strictly less than 0.25, so 0.25 itself doesn't work!
Compare digit by digit from left to right. Since 0.22 and 0.25 have the same tenths place (2), look at the hundredths place: you need a number between 2 and 5.
Absolutely! Any decimal between 0.22 and 0.25 works: 0.23, 0.235, 0.2401, etc. The question just asks you to select from the given choices.
Line up the decimal points and compare digit by digit from left to right. The first place where digits differ tells you which is larger. For example: 0.24 vs 0.27 → 4 < 7, so 0.24 < 0.27.
No! 0.24 is the same as 0.240. You can add zeros to the right of a decimal without changing its value, which helps when comparing.
