To find:
the expanded form of the length of the chalk at the beginning of the lesson and at the end of the lesson,
Solution:
(a)
Given that the length of the chalk is 4.875 inches at the beginning of the lesson.
So, the expanded form of 4.875 is:
[tex]4+\frac{8}{10}+\frac{7}{100}+\frac{5}{1000}[/tex](b)
Given that the length of the chalk is 3.125 inches at the end of the lesson
So, the expanded form of 3.125 is:
[tex]3+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{2}{100}+\frac{5}{1000}[/tex]
