114.425<114.58 because 425<580
114.425>114.58 because 425>58
114.58<114.425 because 114.58 has fewer digits after the decimal point than 114.425
114.58>114.425 because the last digit in 114.58 is great than the last digit in 114.425

Respuesta :

114.425<114.58 because 425<580.

The easiest way to reach this solution is to look at the numbers. Everything before the decimal point is the same, but the first digit after the place holder differs, one is four tenths and the other is 5 tenths. 4 is less than 5 making the first statement the correct one!
