Answer:

The place value of 7 in 2.175 is$0.07$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A number is 2.175.

We have to find the place value of 7 in 2.175.

• As we know that if a number has a decimal point, then the first digit to the right of the decimal point indicates the number of tenths.
• For example, the decimal $0.3$is the same as$\frac{3}{10}$ i.e;

         $=>\frac{1}{10}\times 3\\=>0.3$

• And the second digit to the right of the decimal point indicates the number of hundredths. i.e.;

       $=>\frac{1}{100} \times 3\\\\=>\frac{3}{100} \\\\=>0.03$

We are solving on the following way:

We have,

The number is 2.175.

As we know the second digit to the right of the decimal point indicates the number of hundredths.
