Yes. 7.5 = seven and five tenths.

7.5 = $7.50

Thank u

You're welcome.

Yes, a decimal can be greater than a whole number. In this case, 7.5 is indeed greater than 1. To compare the values of 7.5 and 1 mathematically, you can use the greater than operator, denoted by the symbol ">".

To understand how the comparison works, you can think of 7.5 as a number that lies to the right of 1 on the number line. Since the number line extends infinitely in both directions, we can determine that any number to the right of 1 is greater than 1. Thus, 7.5 is greater than 1.

If you need to compare two numbers, one way is to simply examine their values and use your intuition to determine which is larger. However, in math and programming, we often use comparison operators like ">" to perform such comparisons precisely and accurately. This makes it easier to compare not only whole numbers but also decimal numbers.
