Question

Which of the following lists the numbers in increasing order?

Worked Solution

Each number can be expressed as a fraction with a denominator of 100.

Consider the 1st option:

65% = 65100\dfrac{65}{100}

0.7 = 70100\dfrac{70}{100}

0.72 = 72100\dfrac{72}{100}

34\dfrac{3}{4} = 3×254×25\dfrac{3 \times 25}{4 \times 25} = 75100\dfrac{75}{100}


∴\therefore Ascending order: 65%, 0.7, 0.72, 34\dfrac{3}{4}
