Write seventeen thousand and one hundred six thousandths in standard form.

Sagot :


When you see the word 'and' that's where you have to put the decimal when writing a number in standard form.

 So you would write this number as 17,000.106

Hope this helps. :)

The correct answer is:

17,000.106.

Explanation:

The word "and" separates the whole number from the decimal portion.

Writing "seventeen thousand" means that 1 goes in the ten-thousands place, 7 goes in the thousands place, and the rest is filled in with zeros: 17,000.

"One hundred six thousandths" means that the 6 goes in the thousandths place; the 0 goes in the hundredths place; and 1 goes in the tenths place: 0.106

Together this gives us:

17,000.106.
