Answer: [tex]\dfrac{231}{1000}=0.231[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{2}{10}+\dfrac{3}{100}+\dfrac{1}{1000}[/tex]
two and thirty one thousandths are the required expressions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of coins = 10
Weight of each coin = Two hundred thirty one thousands of an ounce.
So, Weight of ten coins would be
[tex]\dfrac{231}{1000}\\\\=0.231[/tex]
Or it can written as
[tex]\dfrac{2}{10}+\dfrac{3}{100}+\dfrac{1}{1000}[/tex]
or it can be written as
two and thirty one thousandths.
Hence [tex]\dfrac{231}{1000}=0.231[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{2}{10}+\dfrac{3}{100}+\dfrac{1}{1000}[/tex]
two and thirty one thousandths are the required expressions.
