Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
See Attachment for number lines
Given
[tex]\sqrt{24}[/tex] and [tex]4.256[/tex]
Required
Compare both numbers
First, we need to determine [tex]\sqrt{24}[/tex]
[tex]Number = \sqrt{24}[/tex]
[tex]Number = 4.89897948557[/tex]
[tex]Number = 4.899[/tex] -- Approximated
Comparing 4.899 and 4.256; We have that
[tex]4.899 > 4.256[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]\sqrt{24} > 4.256[/tex]
Option C answers the question
