How do I write five hundred and eight hundredths as a decimal number.

Answer 1

start by writing the whole part, sine there us only hundreds we can write it as

$500$

then write the decimal part, we can see that there are no tenths in this expression so we start with a 0, then for the hundredths, we can put the number 8

$.08$

The complete number should be

$500.08$
