1.2 > 1.13

2.38 > 2.3

1.40 = 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Each blank large square represents 1 (as in the whole number 1)

The large squares with vertical lines have been divided into 10 equal parts. Therefore each strip = 1 ÷ 10 = 0.1

The large squares that have a grid of small squares have been divided into 100 squares.  Therefore, each small square = 1 ÷ 100 = 0.01

Therefore, you need to color each accordingly.

Once colored, you should then be able to compare the colored sections and decide which section is visually bigger, smaller (or equal)

1)  1.2 : color the entire large blank square to represent the "1", then color the first 2 strips in the adjacent square to represent the ".2"

1.13 : color the entire large blank square and 13 of the small squares.

1.2 > 1.13

2) 2.38 : color both large blank squares, then color 38 of the small squares

2.3 : color both large blank squares, then color 3 of the strips

2.38 > 2.3

3) 1.40 : color the large blank square, then color 40 of the small squares

1.4 : color the large blank square, then color 4 of the strips

1.40 = 1.4

the forst and 3rd

step-by-step explanation:

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units
