Question

38.97 what is the value digit of 9

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of 9 is $\frac{9}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the place values after decimal are,

Tenth  ( $\frac{1}{10}$ )  = first digit after decimal,

hundredth ( $\frac{1}{100}$ ) = second digit after decimal,

thousandth ( $\frac{1}{1000}$ ) = third digit after decimal,

....... so on,

While, the place values before decimal,

ones  ( 1 )  = first digit after decimal,

tens ( 10 ) = second digit after decimal,

hundred ( 100 ) = third digit after decimal,

....... so on,

Thus,

$38.97=30+8+\frac{9}{10}+\frac{7}{100}$

Hence, the value of 9 is $\frac{9}{10}$
