We are looking for nine hundred ten thousandths.

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let's review:
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.12345
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 1 is in the tenths place.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 2 is in the hundredths place.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 3 is in the thousandths place.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 4 is in the ten thousandths place.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 5 is in the hundred thousandths place.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Okay, so our number, nine hundred ten thousandths should have 4 decimal places.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.0900 should be the correct decimal notation.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Notice that 0.900 would be nine hundred thousandths.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Also, 0.9 would be nine tenths.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It is possible that the problem should be written as nine hundred AND ten thousandths.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If that is the case, our decimal would be 0.910
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope this helps!
