Best Answer

No, 2.5 is less than 3.

To compare numbers starting with the highest place value column compare the digits, moving right a place value column until either all digits have been considered or one digit is higher than the other. If a place value column is empty, its digit value is 0:

For 2.5 and 3 the highest place value column is the ones column

In 2.5 the ones column is 2 and in 3 the ones column is 3; 2 is less than 3, so 2.5 is less than 3.
