Question

Complete the table with the help of these boxes and use decimals to write the number:

$\begin{array}{cccc}\text{Ones}& \text{Tenths}& \text{Hundredths}& \text{Number}\\ & & & \end{array}$

Answer 1

$\begin{array}{cccc}\text{Ones}& \text{Tenths}& \text{Hundredths}& \text{Numbers}\\ 1& 3& 8& 1.38\end{array}$
As one complete box shaded completely, so one goes under ones.
In second box first three row's shaded completely, so 3 goes under tenths and at the 4th row 8 boxed shaded, so 8 goes under Hundredths.
Thus, the required number is 1.38.

For better understanding:

The square is divided into 100 equal parts, as shown below.

(a) (b)

(a) Out of 100 small squares, 10 squares are shaded.

Therefore, the shaded portion in the first case

$=\frac{10}{100}=\frac{1}{10}=\text{one tenth}$

(b) Out of 100 small squares, 1 square is shaded.

Therefore, the shaded portion in the second case

$=\frac{1}{100}=\text{one hundredth}$
