Question 110641: Write in words 0.082
Answer by doukungfoo(195)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To write 0.082 in words you need to know what each place after the decimal is called.
The first place after the decimal is called the tenths place
In this example there is a zero in the tenths place.
The second place after the decimal is called the hundredths place.
In this example there is an eight in the hundredths place.
The third place after the decimal is called the thousandths place.
In this example there is a two in the thousandths place.
Now to write it out first write down the number as you normally would if it was not behind a decimal point.
In this example we have 82 so write eighty-two.
This decimal number goes to the thousandths place so we have
eighty-two thousandths
thats it.
