Answer 1

Based on the given values above, this is how the measurements can be written as a decimal.
Firstly, we need to convert the fractions into decimals first:
a. 1/10 is 0.1
b. 1/100 is 0.01
c. 1/1000 is 0.001
Next, we multiply this to their corresponding numbers given:
a. 9 x 0.1 is 0.9 meter
b. 6 x 0.01 is 0.06 meter
c. 4 x 0.001 is 0.004 meter
Therefore, the measurements of the piece of wood that Marco has are: 0.9, 0.06 and 0.004 meters. Hope this answer helps.
