1. **Stating the problem:** We are given two rational numbers: 0.76 and $\frac{3}{4}$. We need to determine which of the following statements is true: - 0.76 > $\frac{3}{4}$ - 0.76 < $\frac{3}{4}$ - 0.76 = $\frac{3}{4}$ 2. **Convert the fraction to decimal:** To compare easily, convert $\frac{3}{4}$ to decimal form using the formula: $$\text{Decimal} = \frac{\text{Numerator}}{\text{Denominator}}$$ So, $$\frac{3}{4} = 0.75$$ 3. **Compare the decimals:** Now compare 0.76 and 0.75. Since 0.76 is greater than 0.75, the statement 0.76 > $\frac{3}{4}$ is true. 4. **Conclusion:** - Statement 1 is true. - Statements 2 and 3 are false. **Final answer:** 0.76 > $\frac{3}{4}$
