Will the quotient of 34.5/45 be greater than, less than, or equal to 1? Explain.

Given number 34.5 / 45

the question is: will the answer be greater than? Less than? Or equals to one?

The answer is Less than 1, why?.

Because our dividend which is 34.5 is less than our divisor which is 45.

Let’s solve:

=> 34.5 / 45, divide our dividend by our divisor

=> 0.7667 ... repeating decimals = the answer is a repeating decimal.

=> 0.77 = less than one, thus our answer is correct which is less than 1
