Is a negative number less than a decimal number?
Yes. a decimal is a positive number. you can have negative decimals too
Is 1.320 greater than 1.302?
Yes, 1.320 is greater than 1.302. Thats because even with the decimal, the greater number is decided like usual numbers as long as negative sign is not present.
Is a whole number greater than a decimal number?
No
Is a negative greater or less than a positive number?
A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
Is the square of a number always sometimes or never greater than or equal to the number?
Usually the square of a number is greater than the original number (2x2=4, -2x-2=4) wherther the number is negative or positive. The square of 1 is the same (1x1=1) but the square of -1 is greater (-1x-1=1) The square of positive decimal numbers is smaller than the original number (0.1x0.1=0.01) and the square of negative decimal numbers is larger than the original number (-0.1x-0.1=0.01)
Is decimal number greater than a negative number?
Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers. Decimals can be either positive or negative.
When a whole number is multiplied by a decimal smaller than one what can you conclude about the result?
The result is less than the whole number and greater than or equal to the decimal. Unless the whole number is negative in which case the result is greater than the whole number and less than or equal to the decimal.
What number is less than -2 but greater than -3 and not a decimal?
1
Is a negative number bigger than a decimal?
If the decimal is positive, than a negative number is less than 0.
Is a decimal bigger than a negative number?
If the decimal is positive, than a negative number is less than 0.
Is a 3 digit number always greater than 2 digit number?
Yes, unless the 3 digit number is negative, or a decimal.
Is the fraction negative 1 third greater than the decimal negative 0.3?
No, it is not.
If you multiply a non zero whole number by a decimal less than one would the product be less than or greater than the whole number?
It depends on the signs of the two numbers.The answer is tricky when at least one number is negative because you have to remember that "less than" means "farther to the left on the number line" and NOT "greater in magnitude". E.g. -20 is less than -4 because -20 is farther to the left even though its magnitude (absolute value) is greater.There are four possible cases:Whole number and decimal are both positive: The product is less than the whole number. The decimal reduces the magnitude of the product, so the product is to the left of the whole number on the number line. E.g. 0.5 * 10 = 5, which is less than 10.Whole number positive, decimal negative. The product less than the whole number. A negative times a positive is ALWAYS negative, so regardless of its magnitude the product is to the left of the positive whole number on the number line. E.g. 15 * (-0.2) = -3 and -3 < 15Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. The product is negative but like in Case 1, the magnitude of the product is smaller, so the product is to the right of the whole number on the number line. E.g. (-8) * 0.3 = -2.4 and -8 < -2.4Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. A negative times a negative is positive, and ANY positive number is always greater than any negative number regardless of magnitude. E.g. (-0.25) * (-12) = +3 and -12 < +3
