Question

Is 37.50 bigger than 37.500?

Answer 1

no bc zeros don’t count if they are at the end of the decimal point and there are no other numbers past them

Answer 2

Answer: No; They are the same number

Step-by-step explanation: Lets compare each place value to figure out which is the correct answer.

37.50 → 3 tens, 7 ones, 5 tenths, 0 hundredths

37.500 → 3 tens, 7 ones, 5 tenths, 0 hundredths, 0 thousandths

Since trailing 0's on decimals have no value, the correct answer is that the two numbers are equal.

That's it!
