There is no difference.
they both go together
They are similar because when you compare decimals you say the larger one has more value so the decimal is larger like in comparing whole numbers the number that has more value is larger. So they are very similar.
You are probably looking for 1.6, but if you count ALL of the decimals between 1.5 and 1.7, then there is an infinite number of decimals between the two with an infinite number of decimal places.
There are infinitely many decimals between 1.6 and 2. Any number starting with 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 or 1.9 is a possibility. For example 1.752360406240670000000000000000001000202009
§ In comparing two whole numbers, the one with the most digits is always the greater number. § In decimals the number with the greatest number of digits is not always the greatest.
The process is the same.
they both go together
To compare decimals, line up the numbers by their decimal points. Start comparing from the leftmost digit before the decimal point; the larger digit indicates the greater number. If the digits before the decimal are the same, continue comparing each digit to the right until you find a difference. The number with the larger digit at the first point of difference is greater.
Whole numbers contain no fractional part as do decimals
One way is to show that the absolute difference between them is smaller than any number that you care to choose.
when comparing 2 decimals like .57 and .559 the number with the least amount of numeral places is the greater number.This is caused by the places of decimals because .57 is only 57 hundredths and .559 is 559 thousandths so the one with less numbers is greater.This goes with all decimals and if they have the same amount of numbers then you take the higher number like 8 is greater ten 6.
They are similar because when you compare decimals you say the larger one has more value so the decimal is larger like in comparing whole numbers the number that has more value is larger. So they are very similar.
A single number cannot be compared. Also, it will always be in a correct order - increasing or decreasing!
The sum of two decimals equals a whole number when the total number of decimal places in both decimals is the same or when one decimal has a sufficient number of trailing zeros to make the total a whole number. For the difference of two decimals to equal a whole number, the two decimals must differ such that their decimal parts cancel each other out, resulting in an integer. In both cases, the key is ensuring that the decimal portions align appropriately.
An infinite number of decimals are between any two numbers that aren't the same.
Actually, there is an infinite number of decimals between 0 and 1.
The difference of two decimals is an integer when the two decimals have the same number of digits after the decimal point, and their fractional parts cancel out perfectly. For example, subtracting 2.50 from 5.50 results in an integer (3.00) because both decimals have two digits after the decimal point. If the decimal parts align such that their difference results in a whole number, the outcome will be an integer.
