1. The value of the digit 8 in 2.305 is 8 thousandths.
2. The statement "2.605 has a digit in the hundredths place, so it is 0 hundredths" is incorrect. The digit in the hundredths place is 0, so it represents 0 hundredths.
3. Place values:
- 0.302: 3 tenths
- 3.0259: 2 hundredths
- 4.92: 9 tenths
- 1.118: 1 hundredth
4. Highlighted digits:
- 6.9312: 9 tenths
- 5.321: 3 tenths
- 2.452: 4 tenths
- 0.4215: 2 hundredths
5. Which number has a digit with the value 9 hundredths?
- 8.246 → No
- 3.611 → No

- 3.611 → No
- 1.052 → No
- None have 4 thousandths.
7. Which number has a digit with the value 6 thousandths?
- 8.246 → Yes (6 thousandths)

- 1.052 → No
- 8.246 has 6 thousandths.
8. How much greater is the second decimal than the first?
- 7.46 – 7.06 = 0.40
- 3.221 – 3.221 = 0.000
- 0.421 – 0.431 = -0.010 (second is smaller)
- Differences: 0.40, 0.000, -0.010
