Answer:

The expanded form of the number is

= 6 × 1/10 + 6 × 1/100

= 6/10 + 6/100

= 0.6 + 0.06

The number is = 0.66

Explanation:

A number has a 6 in the tenths place. The number also has a digit whose value is 1/10 the value of the 6 in the tenths place. Which could be the expanded form of the number?

We are told that a number has 6 in its tenth place

This means

6/10 = 0.6

The number also has a digit whose value is 1/10 the value of the 6 in the tenths place.

This means

= 6/10 × 1/10 = 6/100

0.6 × 1/10

= 0.06

Hence, the expanded form

= 6 × 1/10 + 6 × 1/100

= 6/10 + 6/100

= 0.6 + 0.06

= 0.66
