16.45 is less than 16.454. The reason is because 16.454 is 4 thousandths more than 16.45 assuming that both numbers are exact numbers. Although it is only a small amount it still makes 16.45 less than 16.454.

we know that

\(16.454=16.45+0.004\)

so

\(16.45 < 16.45+0.004\)

therefore

\(16.45\) is less than \(16.454\)

because \(16.454\) is \(4\) thousandths more than \(16.45\)

the answer is

\(16.45\) is less than \(16.454\)
