Question

In the number 5.3779, how does the value of 7 in the hundredths place compare to the value of the 7 in the thousandth place?

Answer 1

Answer:

  (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

The hundredths place is immediately to the left of the thousandths place. In our base-10 number system, moving a digit to the left one place increases its value by a factor of 10.

The value of 7 in the hundredths place is 10 times the value of 7 in the thousandths place.
