a) 7.26, 7.62, 7.2 Given decimal fractions are 7.26, 7.62, 7.20
First compare the whole numbers.
Here whole numbers are equal.
So, compare tenth’s place digits of the decimal fractions.
In 7.26 and 7.20 Tenths places are same.
But 7.62 Tenth place is more than the remaining numbers.
So,7.62 > 7.26 and 7.62 > 7.20
To compare 7.26 and 7.20 we should compare hundredth’s places.
Then 7.26 > 7.20
∴ 7.62 > 7.26 > 7.20
(or) 7.20 < 7.26 < 7.62
Ascending order: 7.20; 7.26; 7.62
b) 0.464, 0.644, 0.446, 0.664
Given decimal fractions are 0.464, 0.644, 0.446, 0.664
Then, compare whole numbers.
Here whole numbers are same.
Then, compare tenth’s place digits of the decimal fractions.
0.464, 0.446 are less than 0.644 and 0.664.
First make or check the given fraction are all like fractions or not?
Then, compare hundredth’s place digits
∴ 0.464 > 0.446, 0.664 > 0.644
and 0.664 > 0.644 > 0.464 > 0.446
(or) 0.446 < 0.464 < 0.644 < 0.664
Ascending order: 0.446; 0.464; 0.644; 0.664
c) 30.000, 30.060, 30.30
Given decimal fractions are 30.000, 30.060, 30.30
First make or check the given fractions are all like fractions or not?
So, 30.000; 30.060; 30.300 are like fractions.
Then, compare the whole numbers.
They are same. So, compare, Tenth’s places of the decimal fractions.
30.300 > 30.060 > 30.000
(or) 30.000 < 30.060 < 30.300
Ascending order: 30.000; 30.060; 30.300
