0.030 inch; or 0.03 inch, three hundredths of an inch, to which it is equivalent. Think 30 X 1/1000; cancel a zero top and bottom to get 3/100, three hundredths (The first digit to the right of the decimal point is the tenths place, next right is the hundredths, and third right is the thousandths place. On the right side of the decimal, your number has to end in the named place, so '30' ends with its zero in the thousandths place. Thirty thousandths is 0.030. Three thousandths is 0.003 .)
30 hundred-thousandths as a decimal is 0.0003 or 0.00030
To write two thousandth of an inch as a decimal, you would divide 1 by 2000, which equals 0.0005. This is because there are 1000 thousandths in an inch, so two thousandths would be half of that. Therefore, two thousandth of an inch written as a decimal is 0.0005.
