There are a few simple ways to compare them. Shortest:
- Rewrite 0.6 with the same number of decimal places as 0.58: 0.6 = 0.60.
- Now compare digit by digit: tenths: 6 (in 0.60) vs 5 (in 0.58). Since 6 > 5, 0.60 > 0.58.
So 0.6 > 0.58.
You can also see this by fractions: 0.6 = 3/5 = 30/50 and 0.58 = 29/50, so 30/50 > 29/50 (difference = 0.02).
