The 5 is in the hundredths position, so it is worth 0.5 which is 5 hundredths.
Right most 5 (after the decimal) has a place value of 5/100 3 (after the decimal) has a place value of 3/10 Left most 5 (before the decimal) has a value of 5
Why approximate? The EXACT value is 5.00000
Divide 5 into 1 and the answer you get is the decimal value. 1/5=0.2
2.4. If the second decimal is more than 5 then first decimal value would have become 5 ie one more. If it is less than 5 then the decimal value remains the same. This is our present problem. Now question arises that what we have to do when the second decimal is exactly 5. It is a good question. When the second decimal value is 5 then look at the preceding value whether it is odd or even. If it is odd then change it to the next added by one. If it is even leave as it is. So interesting. Isn't?

170 people would choose steak. To figure this out take 425 and multiply it by 2/5 or .4. your equation should look like this: 425 x (2/5) = 170 . You can also think of this by multiplying 425 by 2 and then dividing by 5.
The value of the 5 as a fraction is 1/2 or as a decimal is 0.5
the value of pi to the nearest 5 decimal places is 3.14159
The value of 2.4 in a decimal fraction is: 22/5
NO!!!! To compare decimals. Write both numbers to the same number of decimal places by inserting 'zeroes'. Hence 4.25 & 5.00 Drop the decimal point 425 & 500 I'm sure you will agree that 425 < 500 . Hence it follows that 4.25 < 5
5*5*17 = 425
The value of 1/5 as a decimal is 0.2
Why approximate? The EXACT value is 5.00000
No... 425=5*5*17
The whole number is 5 and .267 is the decimal place value to three decimal places
By dividing 5 by 8.
