Question

Write the following as decimals.

$500+20+6+\frac{8}{10}+\frac{9}{100}$

Answer 1

Given, $500+20+6+\frac{8}{10}+\frac{9}{100}$

So,

$500+20+6+\frac{8}{10}+\frac{9}{100}=\left(5\times 100\right)+\left(2\times 10\right)+\left(6\times 1\right)+\left(8\times \frac{1}{10}\right)+\left(9\times \frac{1}{100}\right)$

Here, the place value of$5=500$, the place value of$2=20$, the place value of$6=6$, the place value of$8=\frac{8}{10}$, the place value of$9=\frac{9}{100}$

So, In decimal form, $5$ is at hundreds, $2$is at tens place, $6$is at ones,$8$ is at tenths,$9$ is at hundredths place.

Hence, the required decimal is $526.89$
