Answer 2

Given:

A mathematical calculation 23 + 2/10 + 6/1000.

To Find:

The result of the above calculation in decimal form is?

Solution:

The given problem can be solved by using the concepts of decimals.

1. The given operation is 23 + 2/10 + 6/1000.

2. According to the concepts of decimals.

=> Consider a number x,

=> x/10 in decimal form is 0.x,

=> x/100 in decimal form is 0.0x,

=> x/1000 in decimal form is 0.00x.

=> x/10000 in decimal form is 0.000x.

3. Using the above concept the fractions 2/10 and 6/1000 can be converted into decimals.

=> 2/10 = 0.2,

=> 6/1000 = 0.006.

4. Sum of the calculation is,

=> 23 + 2/10 + 6/1000,

=> 23 + 0.2 + 0.006,

=> 23.000 + 0.200 + 0.006,

=> 23.206

Therefore, the sum of the given operation is 23.206
