Question

The decimal 4.2 on the number line is shown by the alphabet

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D

Answer 1

The correct option is C C

The place value table of 4.0, 4.2 and 4.4 is given below:


At the tenths place, we have 0 < 2 < 4

Therefore, 4.2 is more than 4.0 but less than 4.4

So, 4.2 will lie between 4.0 and 4.4 on the number line.


∴ 4.2 is represented by the alphabet C on the number line.
