Answer» i) 0.802, 54.32, 873.274 Given decimal fractions are 0.802, 54.32, 873.274 The greatest number of decimal places is 3. So, we convert all of them to equivalent decimals with 3 decimal places by placing sufficient zeroes. 0.802 = 0.802 54.32 = 54.320 873.274 = 873.274 Thus, 0.802, 54.32, 873.274 when converted to like decimals becomes 0.802, 54.320, 873.274. ii) 4.78, 9.193, 11.3 Given decimal fractions are 4.78, 9.193, 11.3. So, we convert all of them to equivalent decimals with 3 decimal places. 4.78 = 4.780 9.193 = 9.193 11.3 = 11.300 Thus, 4.78, 9.193, 11.3 when converted to like decimals becomes 4.780, 9.193, 11.300. iii) 16.003, 16.9, 16.19 Given decimal fractions are 16.003, 16.9, 16.19 So, we convert all of them to equivalent decimals with three decimal places by providing sufficient zeroes. 16.3 = 16.003 16.9 = 16.900 16.19 = 16.190 Thus, 16.003, 16.9, 16.19 when converted to like decimals becomes 16.003, 16.900, 16.190. |
