Question

Write 22.056 in an expanded form

Answer 1

20.000 + 2.000 + .050 +.006

Answer 2

We know the first place after decimal is tenths

The second place after decimal is hundredths

The third place after decimal is the thousandths place

So for 0.056

0 is at the tenths place

5 is at the hundredths place

and 6 is at the thousandths place

Expanding 22.056 we get

22.056 = 20 + 2 + 0.05 + 0.006

OR

22.056 = $20+2+\frac{5}{100}+\frac{6}{1000}$
