2. Reading from left to right, which of these
numbers are listed in order from smallest
to largest?
(A) 0.303, 0.033, 0.33
(B) 0.022, 0.22, 0.202
(C) 0.202, 0.22, 0.022
(D) 0.22, 0.202, 0.022
(E) 0.022, 0.202, 0.22
The answer is E because the placement of the zeros matter, think of the number being as 0.0,0.2,0.2 so the first pair is small, then the middle number 0.202 also has a 0 in the middle which is basically 0.20 and the last is 0.22. To make this easier, remove the 0 in the front and the decimal. now you have 22, 202, and 220 (0.22 is also 0.220)
