Question

Check if -3/4 is smaller than -2

Answer 1

Answer:

Case 1: When we let -3/4 to be bigger than -2

-3/4 - (-2) = -3/4 + 2

=> (-3 + 8)/4

=> 5/4

Case 2: When we let -2 to be bigger than -3/4

-2 - (-3/4) = -2 + 3/4

=> (-8 + 3)/4

=> -5/4

Since the result in Case 1 is positive, and bigger than the result in Case 2:

-3/4 is bigger than -2

_________

Answer 2

Solutions:

= -3/4 - (-2)

= -3/4 + 2

= 5/4

-2 - (-3/4)

-2 + 3/4

(-8 + 3) / 4

-5/4

-3/4 > -2
