7466, MATHEMATICS, Decimals, WHAT ARE DECIMALS, Study the place value table shown below and note the place val, 4 in each case., Ones, Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Numerals, 4., 9., 5., 7654-, 7., 5., (7645, 9., 7., 4., 9., 7465, 7., 9., 5., 4765, 7., 4., so We find that :, Place value of 4 in 7654 = 4 x 1, Place value of 4 in 7645 = 4 x 10, Place value of 4 in 7465 = 4 x 100, 4., %3D, 40, 03, Place value of 4 in 4765 = 4 x 1000 = 4000, %3D, A We observe that the place value of a digit becomes 10 times as it mov, from right to left by one place, i.e. 4 becomes 40 in above table. The va, becomes 100 times as it moves from right to left by 2 places, i.e. 4 becOm, 3 places, i.e. 4 becomes 4000., What happens when a digit moves one place from left to right ?, Numerals, Thousands, Hundreds, Tens, Ones, 4765, 4., 7465, 9., 7., 5., 7645, 9., 7., 7654, 7., 5.
