Question

Write each of the following as decimals:

$23+\frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{1000}$

Answer 1

Write $23+\frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{1000}$ as decimals:

In $23+\frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{1000}$,

First, we will find the decimal form of $\frac{2}{10},\frac{6}{1000}$ then add it to $23$.

For converting $\frac{2}{10},\frac{6}{1000}$ into decimals, check the number of zeros in the denominator, and by counting that many digits from the right put the decimal point in the numerator.

Therefore, $\frac{2}{10}=0.2,\frac{6}{1000}=0.006$.

So, $23+\frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{1000}$$=23+0.2+0.006$

$=23.206$.

Therefore, $23+\frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{1000}$$=23.206$
