a. Fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths < fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths

Step-by-step explanation:

In numbers it is written in the order

Th    H    Tens    Units    Decimal   Tenths   Hundredths  Thousandths

57    8      0          0          .                0             22

57     8      0         0          .                 3

This could be simply explained that the if we make compare the numbers before the decimal they are same but after the decimal we can analyze

3/10 and 22/100

Converting them into decimals we get

0.3 and 0.22

therefore 0.3 is greater than 0.22

so Choice a is only correct .

a. Fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and twenty-two hundredths < fifty-seven thousand eight hundred and three tenths
