Respuesta :

Part A: The numbers written in equivalent form as fractions are

21/8, -3/2, 13/100, -16/5

Part B: The numbers written in equivalent form as decimal numbers are

2.625, -1.5, 0.13, -3.2

Part C: The numbers listed from the greatest to the smallest is

2.625 > 0.13 > -1.5 > -3.2

Order of magnitude

From the question, we are to write the given rational numbers into equivalent forms as fractions

The given rational numbers are

two and five eighths, negative nine sixths, thirteen percent, negative 3.2

That is,

2 5/8, -9/6, 13%, -3.2

Part A: Rewriting into an equivalent form as fractions

21/8, -9/6, 13/100, -32/10

21/8, -3/2, 13/100, -16/5

Part B: Rewriting into an equivalent form as decimal numbers

2.625, -1.5, 0.13, -3.2

Part C: Listing the giving rational numbers from greatest to smallest

2.625 > 0.13 > -1.5 > -3.2

Part D: The order of the numbers can easily be determined from the decimal forms.

Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers. The higher the magnitude of a positive number, the greater it is. The higher the magnitude of a negative number, the smaller it is

Hence,

The numbers written in equivalent form as fractions are

21/8, -3/2, 13/100, -16/5

The numbers written in equivalent form as decimal numbers are

2.625, -1.5, 0.13, -3.2

The numbers listed from the greatest to the smallest is

2.625 > 0.13 > -1.5 > -3.2
