Question

What is 0.002 one tenth of.

Answer 1

Let's say is "x".

so, "x" is the whole or 10/10 whilst 0.002 is 1/10 then, let's check

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&fraction\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 0.002&\frac{1}{10}\\\\ x&\frac{10}{10} \end{array}\implies \cfrac{0.002}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{10}{10}}\implies \cfrac{0.002}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{10}}{1} \\\\\\ \cfrac{0.002}{x}=\cfrac{1}{10}\implies \cfrac{0.002\cdot 10}{1}=x$
