-1 is less than -1/2.
When you multiply decimals, the product of the numbers gets smaller because decimals represent parts of a whole. When you multiply two decimals less than 1, you are essentially finding a fraction of a fraction, resulting in a smaller value. For example, when you multiply 0.1 by 0.1, you are finding 1/10 of 1/10, which is 1/100 or 0.01, a smaller value than either of the original decimals.
Decimals less than one can't be expressed as mixed number and so 0.5 as a fraction is 1/2 in its simplest form
In decimal form, 0.12 is smaller than 0.2 because the digit 1 is less than 2. When comparing decimals, you start from the left and move to the right. The first place where the digits differ determines which number is greater. In this case, 0.12 is smaller than 0.2 because 1 is less than 2.

false 0.6+0.6=1.2>1
Yes.
Convert to same format and can compare: 1) To decimals: 1/4 = 1 ÷ 4 = 0.25 < 0.5 2) To fractions: 0.5 = 5/10 = 1/2 = 2/4 > 1/4 → Yes, 1/4 is less than 0.5
1/2 is the same as 19.5/39, which is more than 4/39. (Don't use decimals in fractions, this was an example.)
Any number that can be expressed as a fraction. When converted to decimal, they either give a finite number of places (e.g. 3/8 becomes 0.375) or give a recurring decimal (E.g. 1/3 becomes 0.333333...etc) Irrational numbers include pi, square root of 2 and e.
2 is more than 1.
2 less than 1 would equal -1.
1/5 = .20 (in decimals) & 2/8 = .25So, Yes, 1/5 < 2/8 (as we can directly see above by conversion into decimals)!Alternative method: Make the denominator's same --->(1/5) * (8/8) = 8/40and, (2/8) * (5/5) = 10/40So, clearly, 2/8 > 1/5!
