To find the decimal form, you have to manually divide 1 by 8. Since 8 is greater than 1, the quotient would then start with 0., then you add a 0 next to 1, to make it 10. This time, divide 10 by 8. The nearest answer would be 1, because 1 *8 = 8. Subtracting this from 10, you get 2. Add another 0 to 2, to make it 20. Do the cycle all over again. The complete solution is as follows: 0.125 --------------------------- 8 | 10 - 8 ------------------------ 20 -16 ------------- 40 - 40 ------------- 0
<span>The value of 4 is 4,000 because it’s in the thousands (1,000) column. Therefore, 4 x 1,000 = 4,000. Each column has a different value. For example, 0 is in the ones (1) column, 3 is in the tens (10) column, 2 is in the hundreds (100) column, and 8 is in ten thousands (10,000) column.</span>
