Answer
\[-\frac{1}{125}=-0.008\,\,\text{and}\,\,-\frac{3}{500}=-0.006\]
This shows that \[-\frac{1}{125}
Work Step by Step
The rational number \[-\frac{1}{125}\] can be written in decimal form as follows:
\[-125\overset{-0.008}{\overline{\left){\begin{align}
& 1.000 \\
& \underline{1\,\,000} \\
& \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,0 \\
\end{align}}\right.}}\]
The rational number \[-\frac{3}{500}\] can be written in decimal form as follows:
\[-500\overset{-0.006}{\overline{\left){\begin{align}
& 3.000 \\
& \underline{3\,\,000} \\
& \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,0 \\
\end{align}}\right.}}\]
Thus, the rational numbers in decimal form can be written as \[-\frac{1}{125}=-0.008\,\,\text{and}\,\,-\frac{3}{500}=-0.006\]
This shows that \[-\frac{1}{125}
