MCQ
Assertion (A): Two decimal numbers having different whole-number parts cannot be compared.
Reason (R): In order to compare two decimal numbers we first convert them to like decimals.
  • A
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason $(R)$ are true and Reason $(R)$ is the correct explanation OF Assertion (A).
  • B
    Both Assertion $(A)$ and Reason $(R)$ are true and Reason $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • C
    Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
  • Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
(d): Any two decimal numbers can be compared.
$\therefore A$ is false.
The first step towards comparison of two decimal numbers is their conversion into like decimals. $\therefore R$ is true.
