In standard form what is (2 thousands 7 tens)÷10?
Eddi Din [679]
If you mean 0.702 divided by 10 then the answer would be 0.0702. But your question is very... uh... vague because I'm positive no one has heard of 2 thousands 7 tens. Though I'm pretty sure you meant thousandths and tenths, but before you post a question please use correct wording and spelling.
