Question

Write the following as decimals.

$30+6+\frac{6}{10}+\frac{8}{100}+\frac{4}{1000}$

Answer 1

Given, $30+6+\frac{6}{10}+\frac{8}{100}+\frac{4}{1000}$

So,

$30+6+\frac{6}{10}+\frac{8}{100}+\frac{4}{1000}=\left(3\times 10\right)+\left(6\times 1\right)+\left(6\times \frac{1}{10}\right)+\left(8\times \frac{1}{100}\right)+\left(4\times \frac{1}{1000}\right)$

Here, the place value of$3=30$, the place value of$6=6$, the place value of$6=\frac{6}{10}$, the place value of$8=\frac{8}{100}$, and the place value of $4=\frac{4}{1000}$

So, In decimal form, $3$is at tens place, $6$is at ones,$6$ is at tenths,$8$ is at hundredths, and $4$is at thousandths place.

Hence, the required decimal is $36.684$
