Question

question 2
complete the comparison below.
-0.75 ____ $-\frac{3}{4}$
options: <, >, =, *

Explanation:

Step1: Convert fraction to decimal

To compare \(-0.75\) and \(-\frac{3}{4}\), we first convert \(-\frac{3}{4}\) to a decimal. We know that \(\frac{3}{4}=3\div4 = 0.75\), so \(-\frac{3}{4}=- 0.75\).

Step2: Compare the two numbers

Now we have \(-0.75\) and \(-0.75\). By the definition of equality of real numbers, if two numbers have the same value, they are equal. So \(-0.75=-\frac{3}{4}\).

Answer:

\(=\) (corresponding to the option with "=")
