  • Mariah can spin a basketball on her finger for a quarter of an hour, Chita can spin one for 10 minutes, and Dakara can spin one for 650 seconds. Who can spin the basketball on her finger the longest?
    ::玛利亚的手指上可以旋转一个篮球四分之一小时,奇塔的手指上可以旋转一个10分钟,达卡的手指上可以旋转一个650秒。 谁能把篮球打得最长?

    We need to put all these different ways of measuring time in the same unit.
    ::我们需要将所有这些不同的时间计量方法放在同一个单位。

    Putting Real Numbers in Order
    ::按顺序排列真实数字

    Real numbers can be listed in order even if they are different types of real numbers. The easiest way to do this is to convert all into decimals.
    ::即使真实数字是不同类型的真实数字,也可以按顺序列出真实数字。最容易的方法就是将所有数字转换为小数。

    Let's do  the following problems.
    ::让我们解决以下的问题。

    1. Plot 1.25 , 7 2 , and 2 6 on a number line.
      ::计 1.2572 和26 在数字线上。

    One way to compare numbers is to use a number line. To plot these numbers, convert them all to decimals. 1.25 , 7 2 = 3.5 , and 2 6 4.899 (The symbol means approximately .) Draw your number line and plot the points. Recall that 0 is called the origin.
    ::比较数字的一种方法是使用数字行。要绘制这些数字,请将其转换为小数数。 1.25, 72=3.5, 和 264. 899 (符号 意指 约 。) 绘制数字线并绘制点。 请注意, 0 被称为来源 。

    lesson content

    Depending on your scale, you can have hash marks at half-values or only even values. The placement of each number on the number line is an approximate representation of each number.
    ::视您的规模而定,您可以拥有半值或甚至值的散列标记。数字行中每个数字的排列是每个数字的大致表示。

    1. List 3 4 , 1.23 , 2 , 2 3 , 1 and 8 7 in order from least to greatest.
      ::名单341.23、2、33、1和87,从最少到最多顺序。

     First, write each number as a decimal.
    ::首先,将每个数字以小数点记为小数点。

    3 4 = 0.75 , 1.23 , 2 1.4142 , 2 3 = 0.6 6 ¯ , 1 , 8 7 = 1. 142857 ¯ . Now, write the decimals, in order, starting with the smallest and ending with the largest: 0.6667 , 0.75 , 1 , 1.1428 , 1.23 , 1.4142
    ::34=0.75,1.23,21.4142,23=0.66,1,87=1.142857。现在,按序写小数小数,从最小开始,到最大:0.6667,0.75,1.1428,1.23,1.4142。

    Finally, exchange the decimals with the original numbers: 2 3 , 3 4 , 1 , 8 7 , 1.23 , 2
    ::最后,将小数点与原数(23,34,1,87,1.23)交换。

    1. Replace the blank between 5 3 ______ π 2 with <, > or =.
      ::将 - 53 2 之间的空白替换为 < 、 > 或 = 。

     Write both numbers in decimals. 5 3 = 1.6 6 ¯ , π 2 1.57079 . This means that π 2 is the larger number, so 5 3 < π 2 .
    ::以小数写两个数字。 -531.66,21.57079。这意味着%2是最大的数字,所以~532。

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were asked who can spin the basketball on her finger the longest.
    ::之前有人问你 谁能用她手指上最长的篮球

    To compare these different measurements of time, let's put them all in minutes. A quarter of an hour is a quarter of 60 minutes or 60 ÷ 4 = 15 . And there are 60 second in a minute, so 650 seconds is 650 ÷ 60 = 10.8333333... minutes. From this, we know that a quarter of an hour is the most and therefore Mariah can spin the basketball on her finger the longest.
    ::为了比较这些不同的时间测量方法,让我们把它们都放在分钟内。 四分之一小时是四分之一60分钟或604=15。 一分钟有60秒, 所以650秒是650 60=10.8333333... 分钟。 从这个角度来说, 我们知道最多一个小时是四分之一小时, 因此Mariah可以把篮球打在她的手指上, 时间最长一点 。

    Example 2
    ::例2

    List 1 4 , 3 2 , 3 , 3 5 , and 2 in order from greatest to least.
    ::清单14、32、-3、35和2,从最大到最低顺序。

    Write all the real numbers as decimals. 1 4 = 0.25 , 3 2 = 1.5 , 3 1.732 , 3 5 = 0.6 , 2 In order, the numbers are: 2 , 3 2 , 3 5 , 1 4 , 3
    ::将所有实际数字都写为小数。 - 140. 25, 32=1.5, - 31.732, 35=0. 6, 2 按顺序排列, 数字为: 2, 32, 35, - 14, - 3。

    Example 3
    ::例3

    Compare 7 and 2.5 by using <, >, or =.
    ::使用 < 、 > 或= 来比较7和2.5。

    7 2.646 . Therefore, it is larger than 2.5. Comparing the two numbers, we have 7 > 2.5 .
    ::72.646. 因此,它大于2.5。与这两个数字相比,我们有7>2.5。
