Answer:

  7×10⁻¹ +6×10⁻² +5×10⁻³

Step-by-step explanation:

Place value in any place-value number system increases by a factor of the base for each place to the left of the "decimal" point. It is reduced by a factor of the base for each place to the right of the "decimal" point.

For base-10 numbers, the powers of 10 are -1, -2, -3, ... as you go to the right of the decimal point. Hence the number 0.765 decomposes as ...

  7×10⁻¹ +6×10⁻² +5×10⁻³
