List the following numbers in order from least (top) to greatest (bottom).

Question

9.4
8
19/2
Square root of 80
Square root of 16

Answer 1

To list the numbers in order from least to greatest, we'll first convert them to decimal values for easy comparison:

1. 9.4 - This is already in decimal form.
2. 8 - This is a whole number.
3. 19/2 - This can be calculated as \(19 ÷ 2 = 9.5\).
4. Square root of 80 - This can be approximated. The square root of 80 is about \(8.944\) (since \(8.944 \times 8.944 \approx 80\)).
5. Square root of 16 - This is \(4\) (since \(4 \times 4 = 16\)).

Now, we have the numbers in decimal form:

• Square root of 16: 4
• 8: 8
• Square root of 80: approximately 8.944
• 19/2: 9.5
• 9.4: 9.4

Now we can order these values from least to greatest:

1. Square root of 16: 4
2. 8: 8
3. Square root of 80: approximately 8.944
4. 9.4: 9.4
5. 19/2: 9.5

In summary, here is the ordered list from least to greatest:

1. Square root of 16 (4)
2. 8
3. Square root of 80 (approximately 8.944)
4. 9.4
5. 19/2 (9.5)
