Answer 1

#2 is 3/4 > 3/8

Answer 2

so all but #2 is wrong i see what i did now on # 2 and agree should be <
as:
-3/4 becomes -0.75
-3/8 becomes -0.375

so -0.75 < -0.375

right?

im really confused because i posted this question earlier and someone else just replied and said all my answers are wrong. so now im confused if im right or wrong?

Answer 3

opps sorry i did it again
it should be - 3/4 > -3/8

Answer 4

so i do have them all wrong?

Answer 5

From your above ....


opps sorry i did it again
it should be - 3/4 > -3/8

NO!


Your way, (the way your teacher showed you)
-3/4 = -.75
-3/8 = -.375

Now which is farthest to the right, that is the larger, so
-.375 > -.75 or -3/8 > -3/4

My way, the way I showed you in the other post

3/4 ....... 3/8
3/4 > 3/8
-3/4 < - 3/8
