Let's first look at the number that we are given.25,973. We would read this number as eighty-nine and five hundred forty seven thousandths.
In this number, the 5 is in the tenths place. That is equivalent to 5/10 or five tenths (five divided by ten or 0.5).
The questions asks you to write a number in which the digit "5" is one-tenth the value of the number 5 in 25,973
You are looking for a number that is one-tenth of 0.5. Remember, one-tenth equals 1/10 which equals 0.1.
One-tenth of 0.5 equals 0.1 multiplied by 0.5 which equals 0.05. Hence, the number 5 has to be in the hundredths place to answer the question.
Using the number that we were given (89.547), if you multiply 25,973 by (1/10) you get 8.9547.
In the number 8.9547, the digit 5 is one-tenth the value of the number 5 in 25,973
The answer is 8.9547.
I hope this explanation helps.
A rational number is any number that can be wrote as a fraction (p/q). A rational number is the quotient or fraction of two integers. It is seen as a ratio of two integers as well. Repeating/terminating decimals are also rational numbers as they can be shown as the ratio of two integers. (p/q) the fraction, will have both the numerator and denominator being whole numbers.
what we can do: Look at each number in the sequences and see which will have only rational numbers. A: 0 is rational, 1/2 is rational because it is a ratio of two integers, 1.5 is rational because it can be written as 3/2, and 2.82843 is rational because it can be wrote over one as a ratio of two integers.
So A is the only list that contains only rational numbers.
