Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine whether to insert a less than (<) or greater than (>) symbol between $9.07$ and $\frac{17}{9}$, we need to compare the two values.
First, let's convert the fraction $\frac{17}{9}$ to a decimal to make the comparison easier:
$\frac{17}{9} = 1.888\overline{8}$
Now we compare the two decimals:
$9.07$ and $1.888\overline{8}$
It's clear that $9.07$ is greater than $1.888\overline{8}$, so the correct symbol to insert is the greater than symbol (>).
Therefore, the true statement is:
$9.07 > \frac{17}{9}$
