Answer 2

Given :

• The word form of the number is Twelve point one.
• The options for the actual number in digit form, are - a) 12.1, b) 12.01, c) 1.21, d) 0.121

To find : The correct number in the digit form.

Solution :

Twelve point one = 12.1

We can simply solve this mathematical problem, by using the following process.

The said number surely has a decimal point because the word 'point' is being mentioned in the word form of the said number.

Now, the number written before the word "point" will be placed on the left side of the decimal point and the digit(s) written after the word "point" will be placed (in order) on the right side of the decimal point.

So, the number will consist :

• Segment of the number on the left side of the decimal point (or, the whole number part) = twelve = 12
• The decimal point itself (.)
• Segment of the number on the right side of the decimal point (or, the decimal part) = one = 1

So, Final number = 12.1

Hence, twelve point one = 12.1
