Answer :
So,
Convert each of the decimals into fraction form, for example.
[tex]8.0 --> \frac{8}{1} \ or\ \frac{80}{10} [/tex]
[tex]0.8 --> \frac{8}{10} [/tex]
Obviously, then, 80 is greater than 8, so 8.0 is greater.
8.0 > 0.8

Obviously, then, 80 is greater than 8, so 8.0 is greater.
8.0 > 0.8
8.0 is a whole number = 8
0.8 is a fraction = 8/10
The fraction 8/10 is only part of a whole number.
Therefore 8.0 > 0.8
