#0.89 > 0.884#

Write them with the same number of decimal places to make the comparison easier.

#0.89" " =0.8color(blue)(9)0#
#0.884" "=0.8color(blue)(8)4#

Now compare each decimal places:

First d.p.: tenths: they are equal
Second d.p.: hundredths #9>8#

Therefore the top number is bigger.

You can also compare the number of thousandths:

#890/1000 > 884/1000# because #890 >884#
