Further explanation

This question about converting unit forms into standard forms.

• A standard form is written in number form
• A unit form is writing a number using place value units

Let's convert ten hundredths in standard form

$\boxed{ \ 10 \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10} = 0.1} \ }$

Thus, ten hundredths in standard form (or standard notation) is 0.1.

We call it 'one-tenth', it's a small number of less than 1.

Note:

Let's recall the place value.

Thousand | Hundred | Unit | (Decimal Point) | Tenth | Hundredth | Thousandth

Decimal point tells when starting to count. We begin with a tenth when we go to the right of the decimal point and the unit when we go to the left.

Another example:

• 21.3 is twenty-one and three tenths
• two and forty-five thousandths is 2.045  

At a higher level, we also need to learn about scientific notation. Scientific notation helps us summarize the writing of very large or very small numbers.
