Determine which of the following numbers is larger than :
In order to determine the correct answer, let's first add 0 to the number 0.31 in the following way:
In other words, we need to find a number that is greater than 310
Let's observe the answers:
0.311 - Given that the thousandths digit is 1 and 1 is greater than 0, this is the correct answer.
0.309 - Due to the fact that the hundredths digit is 0 and 0 is less than 1, this is not the correct answer.
0.3 - If we add two zeros we obtain the number 0.300. Given that the hundredths digit is 0 and 0 is less than 1, this is not the correct answer.
0.31 - If we add 0 to the number we obtain 0.310. Due to the fact that the thousandths digit is 0 and 0 is less than 1, this is not the correct answer.
