The statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
Procedure used:
“To write a word name from decimal notation
a) Write a word name for the whole number (the number named to the left of the decimal point),
b) Write the word “and” for the decimal point, and
c) Write a word name for the number named to the right of the decimal point, followed by the place value of the last digit”.
Calculation:
The whole number of 308.00567 is 308 and the number to the right of the decimal point is 00567.
In order to find the word name for the number 308.00567, draw a place-value chart as shown in below.
PLACE-VALUE CHART | |||||||
3 | 0 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
Hundreds (100) |
Tens (10) |
Ones (1) | Tenths | Hundredths | Thousandths | Ten Thousandths | Hundred Thousandths |
From the above table of place-value chart, it is observed that the digit 6 is placed in Ten thousandths place.
Thus, the statement “In the number 308.00567, the digit 6 names the tens place” is false.
