1.	Fill in each of the place holders with the correct symbol > or <.(i) 78.23 ……. 69.85(ii) 3.406……3.46(iii) 5.68……5.86(iv) 14.05……14.005(v) 1.85……1.80(vi) 0.98……1.07
Answer» (i) 78.23 ……. 69.85 By comparing whole numbers 78 > 69 ∴ 78.23>69.85 (ii) 3.406……3.46 By comparing whole number, 3 = 3 By comparing the tenths place digit, 4 = 4 By comparing the hundredths place digit, 0 < 6 ∴ 3.406 < 3.46 (iii) 5.68……5.86 By comparing whole number, 5 = 5 By comparing the tenths place digit, 6 < 8 ∴ 5.68 < 5.86 (iv) 14.05……14.005 By comparing whole number, 14 = 14 By comparing the tenths place digit, 0 = 0 By comparing the hundredths place digit, 5 > 0 ∴ 14.05 > 14.005 (v) 1.85……1.80 By comparing whole number, 1 = 1 By comparing the tenths place digit, 8 = 8 By comparing the hundredths place digit, 5 > 0 ∴ 1.85 > 1.80 (vi) 0.98……1.07 By comparing whole number, 0 < 1 ∴ 0.98 < 1.07

Answer»

(i) 78.23 ……. 69.85

By comparing whole numbers 78 > 69

∴ 78.23>69.85

(ii) 3.406……3.46

By comparing whole number, 3 = 3

By comparing the tenths place digit, 4 = 4

By comparing the hundredths place digit, 0 < 6

∴ 3.406 < 3.46

(iii) 5.68……5.86

By comparing whole number, 5 = 5

By comparing the tenths place digit, 6 < 8

∴ 5.68 < 5.86

(iv) 14.05……14.005

By comparing whole number, 14 = 14

By comparing the tenths place digit, 0 = 0

By comparing the hundredths place digit, 5 > 0

∴ 14.05 > 14.005

(v) 1.85……1.80

By comparing whole number, 1 = 1

By comparing the tenths place digit, 8 = 8

By comparing the hundredths place digit, 5 > 0

∴ 1.85 > 1.80

(vi) 0.98……1.07

By comparing whole number, 0 < 1

∴ 0.98 < 1.07
