Expanded form of a number is a way of writing the numbers to see the independent digits.
Expanded form of 0.115 = (1 × 0.1) + (1 × 0.01) + (5 × 0.001)
Answer:
[tex]0.1+0.01+0.005[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a box turtle Marcos found was 0.115 of a meter long. We are asked to find the length in expanded form.
We know that writing a numbers in expanded form means that we need to show the value of each digit in the given number.
We can see that our given number has 1 tenths, 1 hundredths and 5 thousandths.
1-tenths: 0.1
1-hundredths: 0.01
5-thousandths: 0.005
Now, we will add a plus sign between each number as:
[tex]0.1+0.01+0.005[/tex]
Therefore, our given number is expanded form would be [tex]0.1+0.01+0.005[/tex].
