Hidden Numbers

Introduction
This interview is based on the game "Hidden Numbers". Courtney begins by choosing shorter decimals as larger but after a wrong guess, she looks for zeros after the decimal point. Confusing decimals with fractions, she wants to know how many parts a quantity will be divided into.
