Which fraction below can be placed in the box to make the statement true? >3/4 A 2/6 B 5/12 C 1/2 B 5/6

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make all the fractions be over 12 since that's the greatest common factor

3/4 → 9/12

A. 2/6 → 4/12

B. 5/13

C. 1/2 → 6/12

D. 5/6 → 10/12

D is the only fraction greater than the fraction given, so the answer is D

step-by-step explanation:

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
