Final answer:
The fraction 22/100 converts to the decimal 0.22, and the fraction 22/1000 converts to the decimal 0.022. The digit 2's values in each decimal have a tenfold decreasing relationship as it moves from left to right.
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the fractions 22/100 and 22/1000 as decimals, we convert each fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator. When we divide 22 by 100, we get 0.22. To divide 22 by 1000, we move the decimal point three places to the left, placing zeros as placeholders if necessary, resulting in 0.022.
The values of the digit 2 in each of the decimals are related by their place value. In the decimal 0.22, the first 2 is in the tenths place, and the second 2 is in the hundredths place. In the decimal 0.022, the first 2 is in the hundredths place, and the second 2 is in the thousandths place. As we move from left to right, each 2 represents a value ten times smaller than the 2 to its left.
