Math Problem Statement
check again, remember its which inequaillity correctly orders the numbers
Solution
Let's review the problem again carefully and focus on correctly ordering the given numbers:
The given numbers are , , , and .
First, let's convert the fractions to decimal form for easier comparison:
Now, let's order these values from least to greatest: -2, -1.25, -0.5, -0.1
Thus, the correct inequality order from least to greatest is:
Now, let's review the provided options to identify the correct inequality:
-
A:
- Converted:
- This is incorrect.
-
B:
- Converted:
- This is incorrect.
-
C:
- Converted:
- This is incorrect.
-
D:
- Converted:
- This is correct.
Thus, the correct inequality that orders the numbers , , , and is:

- How do I convert fractions to decimal form?
- Can you explain how to compare negative decimal numbers?
- What are some tips for ordering numbers in increasing or decreasing order?
- How do inequalities work with negative numbers?
- Could you provide more examples of ordering fractions and decimals?
Tip: When comparing negative numbers, remember that the number with the higher absolute value is actually less when both are negative (e.g., -2 is less than -1.25).
