Question

Plot the two real numbers on the real number line. Then place the appropriate inequality symbol (< or >) between them. $- \frac { 7 } { 10 } , \frac { 1 } { 17 }$ A) $- \frac { 7 } { 10 } < \frac { 1 } { 17 }$ B) $- \frac { 7 } { 10 } > \frac { 1 } { 17 }$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

$- \frac { 7 } { 10 }$ is a negative number and $\frac { 1 } { 17 }$ is a positive number. On the real number line, any negative number is to the left of any positive number, meaning it is less than the positive number.
