Answer 1

Let's evaluate each statement one by one:

1. **−0.3 is less than 15.**
True, because -0.3 is a negative number and any negative number is less than a positive number like 15.

2. **negative 0 point 3 is less than 1 fifth.**
True, because -0.3 is less than 0.2 (1/5).

3. **−1 is less than −45.**
False, because -1 is greater than -45.

4. **negative 1 is less than negative 4 fifths.**
True, because -1 is equal to -5/5, which is greater than -4/5.

5. **−35 is greater than 0.**
False, because -35 is a negative number and is less than 0.

6. **negative 3 fifths is greater than 0.**
False, because -3/5 is a negative number.

7. **0.6 is greater than 1.**
False, because 0.6 is less than 1.

8. **0 point 6 is greater than 1.**
False, same reasoning as above.

9. **0 is greater than −0.5.**
True, because 0 is greater than -0.5.

Based on the evaluations, the three true statements are:
1. −0.3 is less than 15.
2. negative 0 point 3 is less than 1 fifth.
3. negative 1 is less than negative 4 fifths.

And also:
4. 0 is greater than −0.5.

So the correct true statements are:
1. **−0.3 is less than 15.**
2. **negative 0 point 3 is less than 1 fifth.**
3. **negative 1 is less than negative 4 fifths.**

OR if counting the additional one:
- **0 is greater than −0.5.**

Choose accordingly based on the expected number of options.
