Question

Which symbol would make the statement TRUE?
4.589 4.958
A. <
B. >
C. =
D. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

A. <

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol "<" means less than.

Comparing 4.589 with 4.958, 4.958 is greater than 4.589 by 0.369 (4.958 - 4.589).

So therefore, if we are to write 1 statement for both, we would say "4.589 is less than 4.958".

This can be written by using just symbols without words, thus, we have:

4.589 < 4.958.

The correct option is A. <
