Which of the following has the largest value
a. 0.0001
b. 1/10000
c. 1/10⁶
d. 1/10⁶÷ 0.1

Solution:

Consider all the options

1. 0.0001 = 1/10000

2. 1/10000

3. 1/10⁶= 1/10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 1/1000000

4. 1/10⁶÷ 0.1 = 1/10⁶÷ 1/10

= 1/10⁶ × 10/1

= 10/10⁶

= 1/10⁵

= 1/(10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10)

= 1/100000

Here the fraction with smallest denominator will be the largest

Therefore, option a and b are the largest.
