Answer:
0.140 is represented using 40 thousandth blocks and 100 hundredth blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
Base 10 blocks are blocks in set of four which can be used together to represent any number. Also base 10 blocks can be used to perform mathematical computations like addition, subtraction, addition, division, area and many more.
We have to represent 0.140 using hundredths and thousandths blocks.
0.140 = 140 × 10⁻³ = 40 × 10⁻³ + 100 × 10⁻²
10⁻³ represents the thousandth block and 10⁻² for the hundredth. Hence:
0.140 = 140 × 10⁻³ = 40 × 10⁻³ + 100 × 10⁻² = 40 thousandth + 100 hundredth
0.140 is represented using 40 thousandth blocks and 100 hundredth blocks
