Solution

The correct option is C 3
The given number name is one hundred forty five and three hundredths.

Here, 'one hundred forty five' represents a whole number, 'and' represents a decimal point, and 'three hundredths' represents a fraction.


Hence, the number formed is 145.03.

However, if we look at the number given in the question, the digit 3 is placed under tenths instead of hundredths.


Hence, 3 is placed incorrectly in the given number.
