Your Answer Is...

A) 180.4 = 180.40.

Why?

This is correct because you can add zeroes to the end of a decimal and it would never change its value. So, it would be A.

Your answer would be A. 180.4= 180.40, as it is the same with an extra 0, and the zero really doesn't mean anything, unless as it's used when there's a number after it... for example, 180.404 as if you remove it, it would 180.44 which is completely different. Hope I helped!
