The greater a decimal is, the closer it is to one whole. The smaller a decimal is the farther it is from one whole. The first thing you need to look at is the digit number in each decimal. These each have two digits in them, so you can compare them right away.

Aside from the magnitudes which you said that you know are equal, there is nothing left to compare their size. When we go from real numbers to complex numbers, we lose ordering of values. So, you cannot compare i and 1 since i is non-real while 1 is real. The only thing you can compare is their absolute values.

Greater than can be defined as an inequality used to compare two or more numbers, quantities or values. It is used when a quantity or number is bigger or larger than the second or rest quantities or numbers.

Positive numbers are greater than 0, and negative numbers are less than 0. Negative numbers have a minus sign (-) in front of them, while positive numbers have no sign.

it has no end . as counting is endless therefore there is no smallest negative integer but the greatest negative integer is -1. We cannot find a smallest negative integer as well as greatest positive integer as there are infinitely many positive and negative integers.

When we talk about whether a number is greater or less than another, we are simply talking about its position on the number line, so it makes sense that negative numbers are less than positive numbers: they’re to the left on the number line. That’s what “greater than” and “less than” mean, by definition.

Because zero is neither positive nor negative, the term nonnegative is sometimes used to refer to a number that is either positive or zero, while nonpositive is used to refer to a number that is either negative or zero. Zero is a neutral number.

A non-negative number is a number which is either zero or a positive number (note that +0 = 0 and -0 = 0).

Zero is defined as neither negative nor positive.

Positive Integers = { 1, 2, 3, 4, } Non-Negative Integers = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, } (includes zero, see?)

On a number line, positive integers are all the numbers to the right of the zero.

Step 1: Whole numbers greater than zero are called Positive Integers. Step 2: 0.5, 5.5, and 55.5 are the decimal numbers and are not integers. Step 3: Here, only 5 is the positive integer.

Answer: Whole number starts from 0 to infinite whereas integer is a whole number that can be positive as well as negative or zero.

Since Mara and Antwan are each 3 units from 0, Read-3 as “the absolute value 1-31 = 3 and 13 = 3.

The opposite reciprocal of 2 would be -1/2. To find the opposite reciprocal, first find the reciprocal.

Explanation: The opposite is −(−24)=24=12 .

To find the reciprocal of a whole number, just convert it into a fraction in which the original number is the denominator and the numerator is 1. The reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.

We can use this method to see which decimals are bigger:

1. Set up a table with the decimal point in the same place for each number.
2. Put in each number.
3. Fill in the empty squares with zeros.
4. Compare using the first column on the left.
5. If the digits are equal move to the next column to the right until one number wins.

Decimal, Fraction, Metric

You can make an equivalent decimal by placing zeros at the end of the decimal.

1 Answer. Since there is only one decimal, 0.8 is a terminating decimal. If it were a repeating decimal, it would be 0.8888… or 0.

Now we can see that our fraction is 30/100, which means that 15/50 as a percentage is 30%.

Zero is neither positive nor negative. Numbers can either be negative, positive, or zero. Zero is in a category of its own. Positive numbers are defined as any number that is greater than zero.

In the real number system, a negative number is a number that is less than zero. Negative numbers are often used to represent the magnitude of a loss or deficiency. Conversely, a number that is greater than zero is called positive; zero is usually (but not always) thought of as neither positive nor negative.

Greater than and less than symbols can be used to compare numbers and expressions. The greater than symbol is >. So, 9>7 is read as ‘9 is greater than 7’. The less than symbol is <.

Creating the > symbol on a U.S. keyboard Pressing and holding down the Shift , and then pressing > creates the greater than symbol.

Go to Insert tab, click Symbol button and choose More Symbols in the drop-down box. 2. The Symbol will display, select (normal text) in the box of Font and choose Mathematical Operators in the box of Subset. You will see less than or equal to, greater than or equal to, approximately equal to symbols in the option box.

The symbol used to represent greater than is “>” and less than is “<”. If one value is larger than the other value, we use greater than. Similarly, if we want to represent one value is less than the other value, we use less than. For example, 5 is greater than 5.

Revision of <, >, ≤ and ≥ symbols. Mathematicians use ≤ to represent less than or equal to and ≥ to represent greater than or equal to.

Go to Insert > Symbol. Pick a symbol, or choose More Symbols. Scroll up or down to find the symbol you want to insert. Different font sets often have different symbols in them and the most commonly used symbols are in the Segoe UI Symbol font set.

In the Font box, select Wingdings. is available two squares away from it (character code 254). Select the check mark you want.

First, head over to the “Insert” tab and click the “Equation” button (the pi symbol). This open a specialized Design tab in a new tab group named Drawing Tools. You’ll also notice that a new “Type equation here” text box appears on your slide. On the “Design” tab, click the “Fraction” button.
