Answer 1

Let's evaluate each of the statements to determine which three are true:

1. −0.3 is less than 15.
   True. Negative numbers are always less than positive numbers.

2. −0.3 is less than 1/5.
   True. -0.3 (which is -3/10) is indeed less than 1/5 (which is 0.2).

3. 0.6 is greater than 1.
   False. 0.6 is less than 1.

4. −1 is less than −45.
   False. -1 is greater than -45.

5. 0 is greater than −0.5.
   True. Zero is greater than any negative number.

6. −35 is greater than 0.
   False. -35 is less than 0.

The three true statements are:

1. −0.3 is less than 15.
2. −0.3 is less than 1/5.
3. 0 is greater than −0.5.
