  • On air                                       1 h: 20'
  • Check in and get seated        2 h
  • To take off                                1 h
  • Disembark                                1 h
  • Get a rental car                        1 h

                                                        ______

-31/8 ____ -3.92

Which one is greater

Answers

Fist convert -31/8 into a decimal =-3.875 
 so which do you think  is greater now?

Final answer:

After converting -31/8 to decimal form (-3.875), it is evident that -31/8 is greater than -3.92 as negative numbers increase in value as they approach zero. The answer is -31/8 > -3.92

Explanation:

To determine the answer, we first need to compare two numbers, -31/8 and -3.92. To make this easier, convert -31/8 into decimal form. -31 divided by 8 equals -3.875.

Now, comparing -3.875 (which is -31/8 in decimal form) and -3.92, we can see that -3.875 is greater, because negative numbers get larger as they approach zero, and -3.875 is closer to zero than -3.92. So the answer is: -31/8 > -3.92.
