Which number is larger .034 or .027?

0.034 > 0.027

Method to test.

Makes sure the number of decimal digits is the same, in this case three places for both values.

Next drop the units 'zero' and the decimal point; hence 034 and 027

Next drop the prefix zero.

Hence 34 & 27

It follows that 34 > 27 Hence 0.034 > 0.027
