Math Problem Statement
Consider the numbers \( \sqrt{6}, 1.8, \sqrt{25}, \frac{1}{3}, \pi, 6 \). Which of the following shows the numbers graphed correctly and listed in order from least to greatest?
Solution
Let's first evaluate the numbers given:
- ≈ 0.33
- 1.8 (given directly)
- ≈ 3.14
- ≈ 2.45
- 6 (given directly)
Now we order these from least to greatest:
The correct order is:
Now, let's check which option graphs these numbers correctly in increasing order:
- Option C is the correct answer.
