Example Question #14 : How To Find The Decimal Equivalent Of A Fraction

How many of the following four numbers are elements of the set $B = \left \{ x \; | \; \frac{2}{5}< x < \frac{3}{5}\right \} ?$ ?

(A) 0.44

(B) 0.55

(D) 0.77

Possible Answers:

None

One

Four

Three

Two

Correct answer:

Two

Explanation:

$\frac{2}{5} = 2 \div 5 = 0.4$ and $\frac{3}{5} = 3 \div 5 = 0.6$ , so we are looking for numbers that fall between 0.4 and 0.6 exclusive. Of the four choices, 0.44 and 0.55 fall between these numbers. The correct response is two.

Example Question #838 : Fractions

Arrange these numbers from least to greatest:

$\left \{ -\frac{3}{5}, -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{16}{25} \right \}$

Possible Answers:

$\left \{ -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{16}{25}, -\frac{3}{5} \right \}$

$\left \{ -\frac{3}{5} , -\frac{16}{25}, -\frac{13}{20} \right \}$

$\left \{ -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{3}{5}, -\frac{16}{25} \right \}$

$\left \{-\frac{16}{25}, -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{3}{5} \right \}$

$\left \{ -\frac{3}{5} , -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{16}{25} \right \}$

Correct answer:

$\left \{ -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{16}{25}, -\frac{3}{5} \right \}$

Explanation:

Rewrite all three numbers as their decimal equivalents by dividing numerator by denominator.

$-\frac{3}{5} = -3 \div 5 = -0.6$

$-\frac{13}{20} = -13 \div 20 = - 0.65$

$-\frac{16}{25} = -16 \div 25 = -0.64$

To arrange negative numbers from least to greatest, we must arrange them so that their absolute values (values without the negative symbol) go from greatest to least. In descending order, the absolute values are

$\left \{ 0.65, 0.64, 0.6\right \}$

so, in ascending order, the numbers themselves are

$\left \{ -0.65,- 0.64,- 0.6\right \}$ ,

or, as fractions,

$\left \{ -\frac{13}{20}, -\frac{16}{25}, -\frac{3}{5} \right \}$ .

Example Question #834 : Fractions

Arrange these numbers from least to greatest:

$\left \{ \frac{6}{7}, \frac{17}{20}, \frac{9}{11} \right \}$

Possible Answers:

$\left \{ \frac{6}{7}, \frac{17}{20} ,\frac{9}{11} \right \}$

$\left \{ \frac{6}{7} ,\frac{9}{11}, \frac{17}{20} \right \}$

$\left \{ \frac{17}{20} ,\frac{6}{7}, \frac{9}{11} \right \}$

$\left \{\frac{9}{11}, \frac{6}{7} , \frac{17}{20} \right \}$

$\left \{\frac{9}{11}, \frac{17}{20}, \frac{6}{7}\right \}$

Correct answer:

$\left \{\frac{9}{11}, \frac{17}{20}, \frac{6}{7}\right \}$

Explanation:

Rewrite all three numbers as their decimal equivalents by dividing numerator by denominator.

$\frac{6}{7} = 6 \div 7 = 0.857142...$

$\frac{17}{20} = 17 \div 20 = 0.85$

$\frac{9}{11} = 9 \div 11 = 0.8181...$

From the decimal equivalents, the fractions can be arranged as follows:

$\left \{\frac{9}{11}, \frac{17}{20}, \frac{6}{7}\right \}$

Example Question #15 : How To Find The Decimal Equivalent Of A Fraction

Express 0.44 as a fraction in simplest form.

Possible Answers:

$\frac{22}{45}$

$\frac{22}{50}$

$\frac{11}{20}$

$\frac{11}{25}$

$\frac{11}{24}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{11}{25}$

Explanation:

0.44 is forty-four one-hundredths, so write this as a fraction and reduce:

$\frac{44}{100} = \frac{44\div 4}{100\div 4} = \frac{11}{25}$

Example Question #21 : How To Find The Decimal Equivalent Of A Fraction

Write as a decimal: $\frac{23}{30}$

Possible Answers:

0.766

$0.7\overline{6}$

$0.\overline{7}$

0.69

$0.76\overline{7}$

Correct answer:

$0.7\overline{6}$

Explanation:

Divide by :

$23 \div 30 = 0.7666...$

The 6 repeats infinitely, so this can be written as $0.7\overline{6}$
