MCQ
Which is greater among $2.3, 2.03, 2.33, 2.05?$
  • A
    $2.3$
  • B
    $2.03$
  • $2.33$
  • D
    $2.05$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$2.33$

The whole parts of all the above numbers are equal. Comparing the tenth parts, we see that two of the decimals have a tenth part $0$ and two have a tenth part $3$. Leaving aside the decimals that have a tenth part $0$, we have $2.3$ and $2.33$. Comparing them, we find that $2.33$ is greater than $2.3$, because, in $2.3$, there is no hundredth part, but in $2.33$, the hundredth part is $3.$
