Converting Place Value Chart to Decimal: Reading 3.3

Question

Write the number shown in the chart below as a decimal:

100010010133

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we follow these steps:

  • Identify the number and its position from the given chart.
  • In the 'ones' place, there is a '3'.
  • In the 'tenths' place, we also have a '3'.
  • Combine these digits respecting their place values to form a decimal.

Now, assembling this using place values:
- The '3' in the 'ones' place contributes a value of 33.
- The '3' in the 'tenths' place contributes a value of 0.30.3.

To create the complete number, add these place values:

3+0.3=3.33 + 0.3 = 3.3

Therefore, the solution to the problem, written as a decimal, is 3.33.3.
