Here are the numbers: 2.07, 2.7, 2.4, 2.04
So you look at the first digit and move along to see which is the smallest
All the whole numbers are 2 so you can't tell from there
Now move on to the next digit which is after the decimal
As you can see, there is a .07, .7, .4, and a .04
So .7 is obviously the largest, followed by .4 so that leaves .04 and .07 which you can't tell by the "0"
So look at them. 4 in .04 is smaller than 7 in .07, right?
So that means that 2.04 is the smallest followed by 2.07 then 2.4 and then 2.7 being the largest
So from smallest to greatest:
2.04, 2.07, 2.4, 2.7
Answer: 2.04 is the smallest
