Question

Armando wrote the expanded notation for 0.356 as shown below. How can you

rewrite his expanded notation using fractions for the place values?

Answer 1

3×1/10 +5×1/100 +6×1/1000

Explanation:

You have not shown Armando's work, but we know there are several ways that expanded form can be written:

0.356 = 0.3 + 0.05 + 0.006

= 3×0.1 + 5×0.01 + 6×0.001

= 3×10^-1 + 5×10^-2 + 6×10^-3

When the place values are expressed as fractions, this is ...

= 3×1/10 + 5×1/100 + 6×1/1000
