Question 44113: How would I determine the maximum and minimum values of the following set of numbers:
3, -36/7, -1, -2/3, 5/4, 26/9
Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
We can express these as decimals (approximately)...that's one way...so we get
3, -36/7, -1, -2/3, 5/4, 26/9
becoming
3, -5.143, -1, -.667, 1.25, 2.889
From this list you can see which is the greatest negative, that is, the minimum value ==> -36/7 and then the maximum value ==> 26/9
