Question

Name 3 decimals whose sum is 0.08

Answer 1

Answer:
`0.05,\ 0.02` and
`0.01`

Explanation:

For this exercise it is necessary to review the definition of decimal numbers.

By definition, decimal numbers are those numbers that contain a Decimal point, which separates the whole number part and fractional part.

Remember that the sum is the result of an Addition.

Then, given the Decimal number:

`0.08`

You need to find three decimal numbers that, when you added , you get the sum
`0.08`.

To undertand this better, imagine that you are working with the number 8. You know that it can be obtained, for example, by adding these numbers:

`5,\ 2` and
`1` or
`4,\ 1` and
`3`

In the same way, you can add the following decimals to get the sum
`0.08`:

`0.05,\ 0.02` and
`0.01`

Checking:

`0.05+\\0.02\\0.01\\........\\0.08`
