9.791

Thousandth indicates that the last decimal is in the thousandths place, the third place to the right of the decimal point. .001 would be one thousandth, and .052 would be fifty-two thousandths. The nine at the beginning signifies that there is a number before the decimal place. For instance, three and four hundredths would be 3.04. Nine and seven hundred ninety-one thousandths is written 9.791. Note: Thousands is in the fourth place to the left of the decimal place, eg. 3 thousand is 3,000. Do not confuse thousands and thousandths; they are very different.
