Solution
The document contains several exercises related to comparing and ordering rational and irrational numbers. Here are some of the tasks included:
- Estimate √48 by finding the integers it falls between and determining which integer it is closer to.
- Compare the numbers √3 and 2.6.
- Order the numbers from least to greatest.
- Estimate √39 and find its position between two consecutive whole numbers, including refining the approximation by squaring decimals.
- Order the heights of clay pots with measurements:
Would you like a detailed solution for one of these problems, or clarification on a specific part?
Here are five relative questions you might consider:
- How do you estimate square roots between integers?
- What are some tips for comparing irrational numbers to rational numbers?
- How do you approach ordering both positive and negative numbers?
- What is the best method to square decimals when refining square root estimates?
- How do you plot irrational numbers accurately on a number line?
Tip: When comparing square roots to integers or decimals, approximating the square roots can make it easier to compare!
