How do you represent decimal numbers in expanded notation?

1. How do you represent decimal numbers in expanded notation?

2. In this lesson you will learn how to read and write numbers to the thousandths in expanded notation by using base ten blocks.

3. The value of a digit depends upon its position in a number. You can find the value of a digit by multiplying it by its place. 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 8 8 0 8 8 0 0 4 4 4 0 1 0 0 1 (3 x 1,000) + (8 x 100) + (4 x 10) + (1 x 1)

4. A number can be written in expanded notation by writing an expression that shows the sum of the values of each digit. 2.486 2.486 2.486 2.486 2.486 2 + 0.4 + 0.08 + 0.006 8 x 0.01 6 x 0.001 2 x 1 4 x 0.1
