is 0.794 greater than or less than 0.05

Question

I would like to know if there is a correlation between two variables

Answer 1

You can put any zeroes to the begginning of the number before the dot,
and you can put any zeroes after the end of the number after the dot.

0.05 = 0.050 = 0.05000000000000000000000
0.794 = 0000000000.794 =00.794000000000

Now you can place the numbers in a way that the dots will be on top of eachother
0000,05000000
0000.79400000

You don't need that many zeroes, you need only one zero here, so the two values will have the same number of digits.
0.050
0.794

Now compare the digits one-by-one from left to right. Whoever will have the first larger digit wins.
0 vs 0, they are equal, go to the next digit.
0 vs 7, 7 is greater than 0, 0.794 wins.
0.794 is greater than 0.05.
