Answer:

Jill is incorrect

Explanation:

Given


(23)/(1000)= 0.23

Required

Determine if Jill is correct or incorrect

Start by solving the expression on the left hand side:


(23)/(1000) = 0.023

The result of
(23)/(1000) gives 0.023 and not 0.23 as Jill as said;

Hence;

Jill is incorrect and the expression is false;
