Answer: [tex]1.25=1+0.2+0.005[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : When measuring board footage for some exotic woods, a carpenter must use 1.25 inches for thickness rather than 1 inch in her calculations.
To write : 1.25 in expanded form.
When we write a decimal number in expanded form, we are showing the place value of each digit.
Now, 1.25 can be written as :
[tex]1.25=1+0.2+0.005[/tex]
Hence, the expanded form of [tex]1.25=1+0.2+0.005[/tex]
