Solution Steps

Step 1: Compare Whole Numbers

First, compare the whole number parts of the two numbers. Both 4.8 and 4.62 have the whole number part 4.

Step 2: Compare Decimal Parts

Since the whole numbers are the same, compare the decimal parts. The decimal part of 4.8 is 0.8, and the decimal part of 4.62 is 0.62.

Step 3: Determine Which Decimal is Larger

To compare 0.8 and 0.62, note that 0.8 is greater than 0.62 because 8 is greater than 6 when comparing the tenths place.

Final Answer

4.8 and 4.62 have the same whole number part, but 4.8 is greater than 4.62 because its decimal part is larger.
