9514 1404 393

Answer:

"and"

Step-by-step explanation:

Properly written, the word "and" separates the integer portion from the fractional portion of the number. If there is no "and", then there is no integer portion, so the number is a fraction less than 1.

<u>Examples</u>:

one <em>and</em> three tenths = 1 3/10

thirty-one thousandths = 31/1000
