decimals 10.2+3/10+4/100=?
Answers
✰ Let's solve this question in two ways.
• By using fraction rules.
• By converting all the fractions into decimals and performing addition as usual.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀_____________
By using fraction rules :
Firstly we'll write 10.2 as fraction.
Now, by taking the L.C.M of 10, 10, and 100 we'll make the denominator same.
>> L.C.M of 10,10,100 is 100.
Performing addition in numerator.
Now, writing into decimals.
Therefore, the answer is 10.54.

By converting all the fractions into decimals and performing addition as usual.
So,
Therefore, the answer is 10.54.
Answer :
- The total sum is 10.54 ✓
Concept :
❥We can get the solution for the given problem in two ways :-
- Firstly, we'll convert all non-decimal numbers into decimal numbers and then find the sum of the three decimal numbers.
- Secondly, we'll convert the decimal numbers into fractions and then proceed obeying the basic rules of fractions.
Now, we're in the position to solve the given problem!
To find :
- 10.2+3/10+4/100
Step by step explanation :
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀First way :-
Step 1 ) Convert all the fraction numbers into decimal numbers.
3/10 = 0.3
4/100 = 0.04
Step 2 ) Add up the decimal numbers obtained from the step 1 along with given decimal number and we'll get the answer of the question.
0.3 + 0.04 + 10.2 ⇒ 10.54 ✔️
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Second way :-
Step 1 ) Convert all the decimals into fractions.
10.2 = 102/10
- [ Don't reduce the above fraction into lowest form, otherwise it'll be difficult to calculate and to take the LCM. ]
Step 2 ) Take the LCM of the fraction numbers for adding them.
- Fractions = 102/10, 3/10 and 4/100
- LCM of the above three numbers = 100
Step 3 ) Convert the fraction into the fractions having denominator as 100.
102/10 × 10/10 = 1020/100
4/100 × 1/1 = 4/100, and
3/10 × 10/10 = 30/100
Step 4 ) Add up the numbers obtained in step 3 and take the denomination 100 as common.
⇒ (1020+4+30)/100 = 1054/100
Step 5 ) Convert the number obtained in step 4 into the decimal number.
1054/100 = 10.54 ✔️
