If \(a=\sqrt{6}\), \(b=\frac{5}{2}\), and \(c=2.48\), what is the increasing order of these numbers on the number line?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(a<c<b\)
Since \(\sqrt{6}\approx2.449\), \(c=2.48\), and \(\frac{5}{2}=2.5\), we get \(2.449<2.48<2.5\). Therefore, the increasing order is \(a<c<b\). Remember that increasing order means arranging numbers from least to greatest.
