Answer:

4. 0.444,0.43,0.4,0.355

Answer 2

Given:

A set of numbers,

1) 0.355, 0.4, 0.43, 0.444

2) 0.4, 0.43, 0.444, 0.355

3) 0.43, 0.355, 0.444, 0.4

4) 0.444, 0.43, 0.4, 0.355​

To Find:

The list which is having the numbers arranged from greatest to smallest.

Solution:

1) 0.355, 0.4, 0.43, 0.444

• 0.355 is less than 0.4, 0.4 is less than 0.43, 0.43 is less than 0.444. Hence, 0.355 < 0.4 < 0.43 < 0.444 is the order. Hence this set is incorrect because it is in ascending order.

2) 0.4, 0.43, 0.444, 0.355

• 0.4 is less than 0.43, 0.43 is less than 0.444, 0.444 is greater than 0.355. 0.4 < 0.43 < 0.444 > 0.355 is their order. Hence this set is incorrect because it is not in the descending order.

3) 0.43, 0.355, 0.444, 0.4

• 0.43 is greater than 0.355, 0.355 is less than 0.444, 0.444 is greater than 0.4. Hence, 0.4 > 0.355 < 0.444 > 0.4 is their order. Hence this set is incorrect becuase it is not in descending order.

4) 0.444, 0.43, 0.4, 0.355

• 0.444 is greater than 0.43, 0.43 is greater than 0.4, 0.4 is greater than 0.355. Hence 0.444 > 0.43 > 0.4 > 0.355 is their order. Hence this set satisfies the given condition as they are in descending order.

Therefore, Set 4 satisfies the given condition. ( 0.444, 0.43, 0.4, 0.355).
