QuestionOrder the campsites from lowest to highest elevation: 1) $41/2$ m, 2) $5.6$ m, 3) $23$ m, 4) $1.35$ m. Options: A. $1,2,3,4$ B. $1,3,4,2$ C. $4,3,2,1$ D. $2,4,3,1$

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The elevations are given in meters. The elevations are given as fractions or decimal numbers3. We need to order the campsites from least to greatest elevation

STEP 2

First, we need to convert all elevations to the same format. We can convert the fraction to a decimal for easier comparison.
The elevation of Campsite1 is given as a fraction, $41 /2 \mathrm{~m}$ . We can convert this to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.
$levation_{1} = \frac{41}{2}$

STEP 3

Calculate the decimal value of the elevation of Campsite1.
$levation_{1} = \frac{41}{2} =20.5 \mathrm{~m}$

STEP 4

Now we have all the elevations in decimal form. Let's list them out for easier comparison.
1. Campsite1 $20. \mathrm{~m}$
2. Campsite2 $.6 \mathrm{~m}$
3. Campsite3 $2 \mathrm{3} / \mathrm{m}$ (There seems to be a typo here, assuming it's $2.3 \mathrm{~m}$ )
4. Campsite4 $1.35 \mathrm{~m}$

STEP 5

Now we can order the campsites from least to greatest elevation.1. Campsite4 $1.35 \mathrm{~m}$
2. Campsite3 $2.3 \mathrm{~m}$
3. Campsite2 $5. \mathrm{~m}$
4. Campsite1 $20.5 \mathrm{~m}$ So, the correct order is4,3,2,1.The answer is option C. $4,3,2,1$
