Question

Which option does not express the following in numerals?

• A. 606.06
• B. 606.6
• C. 606.060
• D. 606.0600

Answer 1

The correct option is B 606.6

The given number name is six hundred six and six hundredths.

Here, six hundred six represents a whole number, 'and' represents a decimal point, and six hundredths represents a fraction.


The number formed is 606.06.

$\text{Now, to the left side of the decimal}$ $\text{point, adding a zero}before\text{a number}$ $\text{does not affect the actual number.}$

$\text{Similarly, to the right of the decimal}$ $\text{point, adding a zero}after\text{a number}$ $\text{does not affect the actual number.}$

Hence, out of all the given options, in 606.6, 6 is in its tenths place instead of hundredths.

Hence, 606.6 is the correct option.
