(iii) 5.8 by 100
(iv) 0.7 by 100
(v) 0.48 by 100
(vi) 0.03 by 100

Answer 1

(i) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{459.5}{100}=\frac{4595}{1000} \\ =4.595 \end{gathered}$$

(ii) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{74.3}{100}=\frac{743}{1000} \\ =0.743 \end{gathered}$$

(iii) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{5.8}{100}=\frac{58}{1000} \\ =0.058 \end{gathered}$$

(iv) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{0.7}{100}=\frac{7}{1000} \\ =0.007 \end{gathered}$$

(v) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{0.48}{100}=\frac{48}{100\times 100} \\ =0.0048 \end{gathered}$$

(vi) $$\begin{gathered} \frac{0.03}{100}=\frac{3}{100\times 100} \\ =0.0003 \end{gathered}$$
