Question

$1.03, 11.01, 1.13, 3.01, 0.31$

Accepted Answer

To write decimal numbers $1.03, 11.01, 1.13, 3.01, 0.31$ in ascending order:

A decimal number can be defined as a number whose whole number part and fractional part are separated by a decimal point.

The whole number part or integral of a decimal numeral is the integer written to the left of the decimal number and the part from the decimal point to the right is the fractional part.

To compare two or more decimal numbers, we use the following steps:

Compare the whole number parts. The decimal number having the smaller whole number part is smaller.

If the whole number parts are equal, then we compare the tenths digits, hundredths digits, and so on."

So, we have $0.31 < 1.03 < 1.13 < 3.01 < 11.01$ .

Thus, we can arrange the given decimal numbers in ascending order as $0.31 < 1.03 < 1.13 < 3.01 < 11.01$ .
