No, they are equal. Any time you have a zero to the right of the number behind the decimal, such as .4 or .40, the zero has no value. Now, if the zero was to the left of the 4, then it would have value, and would make a big difference. For example:

If it were .04 instead of .4 or .40, then it would be 4/100 (or four hundredths) instead of 4/10 (or four tenths). In the 34.4 and 34.40, the .4 and .40 are both four tenths.

Always remember, it's when the 0 is between the decimal point (.) and the number that is when it changes the value of the number. But if it's to the right of the number, it has no value.
