Explain how to compare decimals. Use the numbers 6.75 and 6.732 to help you explain this process.

6.75>6.732

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

6.75 and 6.732

We have to compare two given decimal numbers.

First we convert like decimal number

In 6.75 there are two digits after decimal point.

In 6.732 , there are three digits after decimal point

Therefore, we put zero in 6.75 to convert like decimal number

Now, we get

6.750

Unit place of both decimal numbers are same and tenth place of both decimal number are same.

Now, hundredth place of 6.750 is 5 and hundredth place of 6.732 is 3

5 >3

Therefore, 6.750 is greater than 6.732

6.75>6.732

8121 because

130,000 divided by 16 is 8121
