Which statement correctly compares and ? A.1/20<5/9 B.11/20 >5/9 C.11/20=5/9
A) 1/20 < 5/9.
Reason:
1/20 = 0.05 and 5/9 = 0.5555 repeat. So 1/20 is clearly less than 5/9. A is true.
11/20 = 0.55 which is not greater than 5/9, it's less. B is false.
11/20 does not equal 5/9 as the repeating value is larger. C is false.
