Which number is the largest?

  1. 14.000

  2. 14,000

  3. 14.00

  4. 140.00

The correct answer is: 14,000

The largest number among the choices presented can be identified by converting each value to its numerical representation and considering their magnitude. The first choice, 14.000, represents fourteen and does not imply a value larger than fourteen itself; the trailing zeros after the decimal do not change its value. The second choice, written as 14,000, indicates fourteen thousand. The comma signifies thousands in numerical formatting, making this number significantly larger than the others. The third choice, 14.00, also represents fourteen, similar to the first option, and again, the trailing decimals do not alter its value. The final choice, 140.00, indicates one hundred forty, which is indeed larger than fourteen but still smaller than fourteen thousand. In conclusion, the number 14,000 is the largest because it represents a greater quantity than the other options provided, which all represent values less than fourteen thousand.
