In the context of numerical values, 2.4 is equal to 2.40. The trailing zero in 2.40 does not change the value of the number. Both 2.4 and 2.40 represent the same quantity, just written in different formats.

Oh, dude, it's like comparing apples to slightly fancier apples. Technically, 2.40 is the same as 2.4 because the extra zero at the end doesn't change the value. So, yeah, they're basically twins separated at birth.

They are the same. The zero after 4 doesn’t have a value. It’s a trailing zero.

Well, darling, 2.40 is the same as 2.4, just with an extra zero for show. So, technically, they are equal. It's like comparing a plain donut to a donut with sprinkles - they're still both donuts.
