Question

Arrange the following decimals in descending order: 7.3, 8.73, 73.03, 7.33, 8.073

→Please explain clearly

Answer 1

Answer:

73.03>8.73>8.073>7.33>7.3

Step-by-step explanation:

descending order means from greater to smaller

the greatest is 73.03

then 8.73

then 8.073

then 7.33

then 7.3

and the descending order will be

73.03>8.73>8.073>7.33>7.3

Answer 2

To arrange :  following numbers in the descending order .  

Given data : $7.3 , 8.73 ,73.03 , 7.33 , 8.073$

Solution :

• To arrange numbers in descending order is to write number from bigger to small .

• Therefore , if we have to arrange rational numbers in the descending order we need to equalize denominators of all the rational numbers by taking LCM .  

• Then ,multiplying numerators by same numbers as multiplied by denominator to make LCM .
• But here, numbers are in decimal form therefore we write directly in descending order .

• Therefore, we get ,

       Descending order :   $73.03 > 8.73 > 8.073 > 7.33 > 7.3$
