Question

Convert the unlike decimals $8.1$, $2.76$, $3.256$ into like decimals.

Answer 1

Like Decimals are the decimals having the same number of decimal places.

The maximum number of decimal places in the given numbers is $3$ (in $3.256$). To convert them into like decimals we put suitable number of zeros to the right of the decimal part so that there are $3$ decimal places in each number.

$\therefore 8.1=8.100$, $2.76=2.760$ and $3.256=3.256$

Therefore, $8.100$, $2.760$ and $3.256$ are the required like decimals.
