We get the inequality:
Fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths (is less than) < fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths.
What are inequalities?
Inequalities are relations between two unequal quantities.
They are of two types:
- Greater than a > b: This says that a is greater than b in value.
- Less than a < b: This says that a is less than b in value.
How to solve the question?
In the question, we are asked to fill in the blank for the statement:
Fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths ________ fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths.
We are to fill the blank with an inequality sign.
Representing the given numbers in numeric format, we get:
Fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths = 57,800.22.
Fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths = 57,800.30.
Since we know that 57,800.22 is less than 57,800.30 by 0.08, we need to fill the blank by the less than (<) sign.
Thus, we get the inequality:
Fifty-seven thousand, eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths (is less than) < fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths.
