Write the number shown in the chart below:
In this problem, we are tasked with reading a chart and forming a decimal number using the provided whole numbers and fraction parts.
The chart gives us information as follows:
To construct the number, we start with the whole numbers:
The whole number part is , which is interpreted as since leading zeros in whole numbers do not count.
Next, we move to the fraction part:
The fraction part is indicated by the positions 'Tenths', 'Hundredths', and 'Thousandths'.
Thus, combining whole and fractional parts, we form the number:
Therefore, the solution to the problem is .
20.021
Which figure represents 0.1?
Leading zeros don't count in whole numbers! The chart shows 0-2-0 in hundreds-tens-ones, which equals 20. We drop the leading zero because it has no value.
The decimal point goes between the ones and tenths columns. Everything to the left is whole numbers, everything to the right is decimal fractions.
has 2 in tenths and 1 in hundredths. has 0 in tenths, 2 in hundredths, and 1 in thousandths. The zero placeholder matters!
Look at the tens column - it shows 2! This means we have 2 tens (20), not 2 ones. The chart clearly shows 0-2-0 in the whole number section, which equals 20.
is read as "twenty and twenty-one thousandths". The whole number part is "twenty" and the decimal part is "twenty-one thousandths."
