Write these decimals as a sum of fraction that have denominators that multiples of 10 0,725 and 0,0036
To write the decimals 0.725 and 0.0036 as a sum of fractions with denominators that are multiples of 10, we need to determine the place value of each digit in the decimals.
For 0.725:
0.725 = 7/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000
Breaking it down, we can see that 7 is in the tens place, 2 is in the hundredths place, and 5 is in the thousandths place. We can rewrite these as fractions with denominators of multiples of 10. Therefore, 7/10 has a denominator of 10, 2/100 has a denominator of 100, and 5/1000 has a denominator of 1000.
For 0.0036:
0.0036 = 6/1000 + 3/10000
Here, 6 is in the thousandths place, and 3 is in the ten-thousandths place. Therefore, 6/1000 has a denominator of 1000, and 3/10000 has a denominator of 10000.
So, we can write 0.725 as the sum of fractions:
0.725 = 7/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000
And we can write 0.0036 as the sum of fractions:
0.0036 = 6/1000 + 3/10000
In general, to express a decimal as a sum of fractions with denominators that are multiples of 10, identify the place value of each digit and rewrite it as a fraction with an appropriate denominator.
