1.09, 1.9, 1.99

Answer 1

To arrange the decimals in order from greatest to least, let's compare each set of decimals one by one:

1. 1.9, 1.09, 1.19:

   • 1.9 (greatest), 1.19, 1.09 (least)
   • Order: 1.9, 1.19, 1.09

2. 1.99, 1.9, 1.09:

   • 1.99 (greatest), 1.9, 1.09 (least)
   • Order: 1.99, 1.9, 1.09

3. 1.009, 1.09, 1.9:

   • 1.9 (greatest), 1.09, 1.009 (least)
   • Order: 1.9, 1.09, 1.009

4. 1.09, 1.9, 1.99:

   • 1.99 (greatest), 1.9, 1.09 (least)
   • Order: 1.99, 1.9, 1.09

Now, we need to find the set that is already ordered from greatest to least:

Only the second response, 1.99, 1.9, 1.09, is in order from greatest to least.
