Question

Write the Place value of the underlined digit in the decimal number.

$532.94\underline{7}$

Answer 1

Step 1: The Place value chart for the decimal number.

Hundreds	Tens	Ones	$.$	Tenths	Hundredths	Thousandths
$100$	$10$	$1$	$.$	$\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$10$}\right.$	$\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$100$}\right.$	$\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$1000$}\right.$
$5$	$3$	$2$	$.$	$9$	$4$	$\underline{7}$

Step 2: The Place value of the underlined decimal number.

$7$ is at Thousandths place. Hence, the place value is $7$ thousandths i.e. $\left(7\times \raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$1000={\displaystyle \raisebox{1ex}{$7$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$1000$}\right.}$}\right.\right)$

Therefore, the place value is $\raisebox{1ex}{$7$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$1000$}\right.$ or $0.007$
