Question

Write the short form of the following as a decimal number.

$300+7+0.008$

Answer 1

We have,

$300+7+0.008=\left(3\times 100\right)+\left(7\times 1\right)+\left(8\times \frac{1}{1000}\right)$

Here, the place value of$3=300$, the place value of$7=7$, and the place value of $8=\frac{8}{1000}$

So, In decimal form, $3$ is at hundreds, $7$is at ones, and $8$is at the thousandth place.

Hence, the decimal form is $307.008$
