Question

What value does the 5 represent in the number if 0.775

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be, Unit's place.

Explanation:

In mathematics, it is important to know the appropriate standing of the digit. There are numbers which need to be calculated and we must know the accurate position of the digits. Following examples will clear the concept of accurate identification of the digits' place.

For Example, there is a number '1', We would call it a unit. If there is a number '10', there comes two digits, we will move from right to left, and the first digit from right to left will be 0 and then will come 1. 0 will be the unit number and 1 would represent the tens place. Similarly if there would be 100, then first zero will be unit number, second number will be at tens place, and the third number which is 1, would represent hundredth place.

So in the given example, 0.775, 5 would be at unit's place, 7 would be tens, and the other 7 would be 100th place.

Answer 2

The 5 is the thousandth’s place. It also represents 0.005 which in can be written as 0.5%. Hope this helps!
