Question

Represent 8.08 on a number line.

• A.
• B.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

8.08 can be represented as $8+0.08$

The decimal part, i.e., 0.08 is in hundredth.

We know that hundredth is smaller than tenth.

$\therefore$ 8.08 is smaller than 8.1.

In the number line, we divide the space between 8 and 8.1 into 10 equal intervals, each of length $\frac{0.1}{10}=0.01$

On moving towards right from 8, we find 8.08.
