How do you write sixty and four-hundreths?
Assuming that the "sixty" in the question refers to a whole number, and the "four-hundreths" as part of a whole, then the answer would be 60.04.In the decimal system, the first digit to the right of the decimal point refers to tenths of a whole. The second digit refers to hundreths of a whole, the third to thousandths of a whole, and so on.
If you multiply a decimal number and a whole number will you have a decimal in the answer?
Often, yes. But it depends on the numbers. For example, if you multiply 1.5 x 2, you get 3 as the answer (whole number). But if you multiply 1.5 x 3, you get a decimal of 4.5
What is the difference between multiply a whole number by a whole number and multiply a whole number by a decimal?
The answer depends on what the decimal is.For example, 4 * 3.5 = 14But 4 * 3.6 = 14.4
How dividing by decimal is different from dividing by whole number and how it is similar?
Dividing by decimal is different from dividing by whole number as you have to multiply by a number to remove the decimal.
Explain how to multiply a whole number by a decimal in the hundredths?
When multiplying a whole number by a decimal with two places, ignore the decimal point and multiply as if you were multiplying two whole numbers. After you get the answer, re-insert the decimal point so that the product has two decimal places.
