Question

which is greater 09 or
0.99​

Answer 1

Answer:

0.99 is greater than 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

We can compare these decimal numbers by converting them into fractions and then making their denominators equal.

0.9 = 9/10

0.99 = 99/100

Therefore,

to compare 9/10 and 99/100, we will multiply both the numerator and the denominator of the fractions with a number so that the denominator of the fractions becomes the L.C.M of 10 and 100 which is 100.

Therefore,

9/10 = 90/100( both the numerator and the denominator are multiplied by 10 to obtain 100 as denominator)

99/100 = 99/100( both the numerator and the denominator are multiplied by 1 to obtain 100 as denominator)

Therefore, by comparing the numerators(90 and 99) 99/100 is greater than 90/100.

Therefore, 0.99 is greater than 0.9
