49

. This is approximately 1/2, which is less than 2/3

B: Any fraction between 0 and 1 multiplied by itself will decrease in

value. Thus (2/3) multiplied by itself will yield a result that is less

than 2/3.

C. (0.7) × (0.7) = 0.49. This is approximately 1/2, which is less

D. (0.9)

2

× (0.9)

2

= (0.81) ×(0.81). This is approximately 0.65,

which is less than 2/3.

0.08

. This is approximately 27.

E:

0.003

=

80

3

Then, 27 × 27 is clearly greater than 2/3.

The correct answer is E.
