If a graph of a set has an open circle on 1/2 and an arrow pointing to the right, then which of the following numbers is in the set? Please help :)

3/8
1/2
5/6

Respuesta :

5/6 would be the best answer beside the other 2 choices that you have

According to the question, if you graph this on a number line, it basically means any number that is greater than [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (arrow points to the right is all numbers greater than).

Open circle means that [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] is not included.

So we are looking for the option that is greater than [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

If we divide the choices and make them decimal numbers, it is very easy to see which is the correct answer.

[tex]\frac{3}{8} =0.375[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2} =0.5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{6} =0.83[/tex]

Clearly, [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. So third answer choice is correct.


ANSWER: [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
