im not sure this is right either bot, are you completely sure
I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. Here is the correct order of the sets of numbers from least to greatest:
250^0 (1) < (7^2-1) (48) < √525 (22.9)
250^0 (1) < (7^2-1) (48) < √525 (22.9)
Di and Leo both write the decimal 2.55555555.. As a fraction.
Di’s fraction: 2 55/100
Leo’s fraction: 2 55/99
Leo is correct because a repeating decimal typically has 9s in the denominator
Who is correct and why?
Di’s fraction: 2 55/100
Leo’s fraction: 2 55/99
Leo is correct because a repeating decimal typically has 9s in the denominator
Who is correct and why?
Leo is correct. When converting a repeating decimal to a fraction, the number of 9s in the denominator is based on the number of repeating digits in the decimal representation. Since there is a repeating digit sequence of '55' in the decimal 2.55555555..., Leo's fraction of 2 55/99 is the correct representation for this repeating decimal.
