Question

round 2: choose and collect the correct representation of the number shown. 3 tenths 3 hundredths

Explanation:

Step1: Recall place values

In decimal place values, the first digit after the decimal is tenths (1/10 or 0.1), the second is hundredths (1/100 or 0.01).

Step2: Analyze "3 tenths" and "3 hundredths"

"3 tenths" is \( 3\times\frac{1}{10}=0.3 \), "3 hundredths" is \( 3\times\frac{1}{100}=0.03 \). Since the question is about choosing the correct representation (assuming the number shown has 3 in the tenths place, or context implies tenths), "3 tenths" is the correct choice.

Answer:

3 tenths
