Question

Mondo correctly finds the closest benchmarks for three numbers.


Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction is closest to the benchmark 3

3.8 is closest to the benchmark 4

Three and four-ninths is closest to the benchmark Three and one-half


Which shows the numbers Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction, 3.8, and Three and four-ninths in order from greatest to least?



Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction, Three and four-ninths, 3.8


Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction, 3.8, Three and four-ninths


3.8, , Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction


3.8, Three and StartFraction 6 over 25 EndFraction,

Answer 1

Answer:

From greatest to least, the order is:

$3.8,\ 3\frac{4}{9},\ 3\frac{6}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Closest\ Benchmark \to Number$

$3\frac{6}{25} \to 3$

$3\frac{4}{9} \to 4$

Required

Order $3\frac{6}{25}, 3.8, 3\frac{4}{9}$ from greatest to least

From the given parameters, we have:

$3\frac{6}{25} \to 3$

$3\frac{4}{9} \to 4$

This implies that:

$3\frac{4}{9}\ >\ 3\frac{6}{25}$ --- we know this from the nearest benchmark

Convert $3\frac{4}{9}$ to decimal

$3\frac{4}{9} = 3.44$

By comparison;

$3.8 >\ 3\frac{4}{9}$

Hence, the list is:

$3.8,\ 3\frac{4}{9},\ 3\frac{6}{25}$
