Pablo ate one and forty-eight hundredths pounds of bananas. What is the value of the 4 in this number? * 10 points 0.04 pound 40

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

$Value = 4 * 0.1$

Explanation:

Given:

Pounds = one and forty-eight hundredths

Required

Determine the value of 4

First, we convert the given to digits

One and forty-eight hundredths = 1.48

So:

$Pounds = 1.48$

Split to individual digits:

$Pounds = 1 + 0.4 + 0.08$

Express as sum of products

$Pounds = 1*1 + 4 *0.1 + 8 * 0.01$

Hence, the value of 4 is:

$Value = 4 * 0.1$
