Chapter 0.4, Problem 9E

To determine

To find: The ordered form of the given set of rational number from least to greatest.

Answer to Problem 9E

The required order is $-0.5,-0.11,0.10,0.11$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Thegiven set of rational number is $0.11,\frac{-1}{9},-0.5,\frac{1}{10}$ .

Calculation:

Consider the given set of numbers is,

$0.11,\frac{-1}{9},-0.5,\frac{1}{10}$

Consider the fraction in the decimal form as,

$-\frac{1}{9}=-0.11$

Also,

  $\frac{1}{10}=0.1$

Then, the order from least to greatest is,

  $-0.5,-0.11,0.10,0.11$
