To determine which sign makes the statement \( 5.79 \times 10^2 \) ____ \( 759 \) true, we first need to calculate \( 5.79 \times 10^2 \).
Calculating \( 5.79 \times 10^2 \):
\[
5.79 \times 10^2 = 5.79 \times 100 = 579
\]
Now we can compare \( 579 \) with \( 759 \):
- \( 579 < 759 \)
Thus, the correct sign to make the statement true is \( < \).
So the complete statement is:
\[
5.79 \times 10^2 < 759
\]
Calculating \( 5.79 \times 10^2 \):
