Question

How would you write "4/1000" In decimal form?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.004

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{4}{1000}$ is basically $4 \cdot 10^{-4$ (if you've learned scientific notation), so all you have to do is move the decimal to the left four times. That gives us

$4.0\\0.4\\0.04\\\boxed{0.004}$

More depth:

$10^{-4$ also equals 0.001, so $4 \cdot 0.001 = \boxed{0.004.}$

*You may do division and find the answer too. However, these ways are quicker.

Answer 2

Answer:

0.004

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 4/10 is 0.4 and 4/100 is 0.04, 4/1000 must be 0.004
