When the number is greater
The reason is because you have to make the number bigger when you multiply. When you move the decimal to the right you make the number bigger, when you move it to the left you make it smaller. Therefore, when you divide you must move the decimal to the left.
If the decimal is positive, than a negative number is less than 0.
you look at the number closest to the decimal point, in that case, 0.5 would be bigger.
No, 0.01 is not bigger than 0.07. In decimal numbers, the value to the left of the decimal point indicates the whole number value, while the value to the right of the decimal point represents fractions of a whole. In this case, 0.01 is one hundredth and 0.07 is seven hundredths. Since 0.07 is greater than 0.01, 0.07 is bigger.
