because u have moved the decimal one place therefore you will need to add a zero to fill in the space
significant figures. you'll learn how to use significant figures in high school chemistry.
As 5 = 10 ÷ 2: I usually multiply by 10 (by shifting the decimal point one digit to the right, adding a zero if it was originally at the end of the number) and then dividing by 2.
A.when its between two digitsB.When it is right to the right of the decimal and it follows a non-zero digit.
When it is left of an integer and right of a decimal number
As you divide and increase the number of decimal places, each zero is a holder of the decimal place. It must be used to take the level of accuracy of the answer to a decimal fraction that is 10 times as small as the previous decimal fraction.
Because when you want to divide a decimal by a larger number, like 3 divided by 5, you need to add a zero to make the 3, 30, so you can divide, but then the quotient has to be a decimal because 5 does not go into 3 evenly
To multiply by 10, add a zero (move the decimal one place to the right.) To divide, take a zero away (move the decimal one place to the left.)
add a zero to the end (only if it'safter the decimal) and continue dividing

You write it as 0.004 because to the left of the decimal point is ones, to the first zero to the right of the decimal point is tenths, to the second zero to the right of the decimal point is hundredths, and so on.
As many as required: there is no limit.
A.when its between two digitsB.When it is right to the right of the decimal and it follows a non-zero digit.
The second zero to the right of the decimal point is the hundredths (1/100) place.
no dividing by zero equals to 0
6.3; you move the decimal to the right one time for each zero (in a number divisible by ten) you multiply by. ex: 0.63 times 100= 63.0; times 1,000= 630.0; times 10,000= 6,300.0 move decimal to the left if you are dividing.
There is no such thing.Choose any positive decimal - as small as you want. You can always create one that is even smaller, for instance, dividing it by 10 (adding an additional zero after the decimal point). For example, if you choose 0.000001, you can create a smaller decimal if you divide it by ten: 0.0000001. Since it is ALWAYS smaller to create an even smaller positive decimal, it follows that there is no smallest such decimal.
