Q #1: -2/3, -0.7, -1.3, -4/3 Of the number listed above, which number is the greatest?
A. -2/3
B. -0.7
C. -1.3
D. -4/3
Answer Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given options, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 3 and 10 is 30. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.
-2/3*30=-20
-7/10*30=-70
-13/10*30=-39
-4/3*30=-40
Comparing the obtained values from above, -20 is the greatest followed by -39, -40, -70 in that order. The fraction -2/3 gave a value of -20, which was the greatest value. Thus, -2/3 is the greatest value from the given option.
