Question 18

Which conclusion does NOT follow from comparing aligned decimal places?

  1. 5.400 = 5.4
  2. 6.081 < 6.09
  3. 2.710 > 2.701
  4. 0.56 > 0.8Correct answer

Explanation

Aligning points gives 5.400 = 5.4, 6.081 < 6.09 and 2.710 > 2.701. The conclusion 0.56 > 0.8 comes from treating 56 as larger than 8 instead of comparing tenths first, where 5 tenths is less than 8 tenths.
