Understanding Fractions and Decimals
To convert a fraction into decimal form, you divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). In this case, we have:
- Numerator: 12
- Denominator: 100
Calculating the Decimal
To find the decimal form of 12/100, perform the division:
- 12 divided by 100 equals 0.12.
This means:
- When you divide 12 by 100, you get 0.12.
Why Option C is Correct
Let’s examine the answer choices:
- a) 1.2 – This is incorrect because it suggests that 12/100 is equal to twelve-tenths, which is much larger than the fraction.
- b) 12.0 – This option is incorrect because it represents the whole number twelve, which does not correspond to the fraction 12/100.
- c) 0.12 – This is correct! As calculated, 12/100 equals 0.12.
- d) 0.012 – This is also incorrect because it suggests a much smaller value, representing twelve-thousandths instead of twelve-hundredths.
Conclusion
Therefore, the decimal form of 12/100 is indeed:
- 0.12 (Option C).
This conversion is useful in many real-life applications, such as understanding percentages and measurements, making it an essential skill in mathematics.

 | Anoushka Chavan answered |
Solution:
To make the given equation true, we need to express the mixed number 7 8/? as an improper fraction and then multiply the denominator of the fraction with 7 and add the numerator to get the equivalent fraction of 7.8.
Let's convert 7 8/? to an improper fraction:
7 8/? = (7 × ? + 8)/? = (7? + 8)/?
Now, we need to find the value of ? such that (7? + 8)/? = 7.8
Multiplying both sides by ?, we get:
7? + 8 = 7.8 × ?
7? = 7.8 × ? - 8
? = (7.8 × ? - 8)/7
Now, we can try each option given in the answer choices to find the value of ? that satisfies the equation.
a) ? = 1
(7.8 × 1 - 8)/7 = -0.2/7 ≠ 1
b) ? = 8
(7.8 × 8 - 8)/7 = 54.4/7 ≠ 8
c) ? = 10
(7.8 × 10 - 8)/7 = 70/7 = 10
d) ? = 100
(7.8 × 100 - 8)/7 = 772/7 ≠ 100
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' i.e. 10.
To make the given equation true, we need to express the mixed number 7 8/? as an improper fraction and then multiply the denominator of the fraction with 7 and add the numerator to get the equivalent fraction of 7.8.
Let's convert 7 8/? to an improper fraction:
7 8/? = (7 × ? + 8)/? = (7? + 8)/?
Now, we need to find the value of ? such that (7? + 8)/? = 7.8
Multiplying both sides by ?, we get:
7? + 8 = 7.8 × ?
7? = 7.8 × ? - 8
? = (7.8 × ? - 8)/7
Now, we can try each option given in the answer choices to find the value of ? that satisfies the equation.
a) ? = 1
(7.8 × 1 - 8)/7 = -0.2/7 ≠ 1
b) ? = 8
(7.8 × 8 - 8)/7 = 54.4/7 ≠ 8
c) ? = 10
(7.8 × 10 - 8)/7 = 70/7 = 10
d) ? = 100
(7.8 × 100 - 8)/7 = 772/7 ≠ 100
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' i.e. 10.

The value of a digit changes as it moves from the right to the left in a place value chart. Let's understand this concept in detail:
Understanding Place Value:
In our number system, each digit has a specific value depending on its position in a number. This is known as place value. The value of a digit is determined by its position in relation to the decimal point.
For example, in the number 345.67:
- The digit 7 is in the ones place and has a value of 7.
- The digit 6 is in the tenths place and has a value of 6/10 or 0.6.
- The digit 5 is in the hundredths place and has a value of 5/100 or 0.05.
- The digit 4 is in the thousands place and has a value of 4 * 1000 or 4000.
- The digit 3 is in the ten thousands place and has a value of 3 * 10,000 or 30,000.
Increasing Value:
As we move from right to left in a place value chart, the value of a digit increases by 10 times. This is because each digit's value is 10 times greater than the digit to its right.
For example, consider the number 345.67 again:
- The digit 5 is 10 times greater than the digit 4.
- The digit 4 is 10 times greater than the digit 3.
So, as we move from right to left, the value of each digit increases by a factor of 10.
Summary:
In a place value chart, the value of a digit changes as it moves from the right to the left. The value of a digit increases by 10 times as we go from right to left. This is a fundamental concept in our number system and helps us understand the relative values of digits in a number.

Total earning during three days
To find the total earning during the three days, we need to add up the earnings of each day.
Given:
Earning on the first day = Rs 302.80
Earning on the second day = Rs 379.20
Earning on the third day = Rs 297.60
To find the total earning, we add these amounts together:
Total earning = Rs 302.80 + Rs 379.20 + Rs 297.60
Calculating the total earning:
Total earning = Rs 979.60
Therefore, the total earning during these three days is Rs 979.60.
The correct answer is option A) Rs 979.60.

 | Prasad Kulkarni answered |
Understanding Decimal Comparison
When comparing decimals, it's important to look at the digits from left to right. Each digit's place value helps determine which number is greater.
Step-by-Step Comparison
- Identify the Numbers:
We have 0.65 and 0.56.
- Compare the Whole Numbers:
Both numbers are less than 1, so we focus on the digits after the decimal point.
- Examine the Tenths Place:
- In 0.65, the tenths digit is 6.
- In 0.56, the tenths digit is also 5.
Here, 6 (from 0.65) is greater than 5 (from 0.56).
- Conclusion from Tenths Place:
Since the tenths digit of 0.65 is greater than that of 0.56, we can conclude that 0.65 is greater.
Final Verification
- Comparing the Hundredths Place:
- In 0.65, the hundredths digit is 5.
- In 0.56, the hundredths digit is 6.
Although 6 is greater than 5, the comparison was already determined by the tenths place.
- Overall Conclusion:
Since the tenths digit of 0.65 is larger, 0.65 is indeed greater than 0.56.
Correct Answer
- Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A': 0.65 is greater than 0.56.

| | EduRev Class 6 answered |
To compare the numbers, we need to consider their values:
- 5.005 is the smallest because it has the smallest decimal part.
- 5.05 comes next, as it has a larger decimal part than 5.005.
- 5.5 comes after 5.05, as 5.5 is greater.
- 5.555 is the largest number.
Thus, the correct order is: 5.005 < 5.05 < 5.5 < 5.555
Therefore, the correct answer is Option B.
