Here is the complete solution to the worksheet, following all instructions carefully.

---

A. Directions: Write the following Decimal numbers in words. (CAPITAL LETTERS ONLY / ONE SPACING PER WORD)

1. 6.04 =
→ SIX AND FOUR HUNDREDTHS

2. 600.06 =
→ SIX HUNDRED AND SIX HUNDREDTHS

3. 3.789 =
→ THREE AND SEVEN HUNDRED EIGHTY-NINE THOUSANDTHS

4. 23.2512 =
→ TWENTY-THREE AND TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED TWELVE TEN-THOUSANDTHS

5. 542.025 =

6. Twelve and ninety-one hundredths =
→ 12.91

7. Fifty-four and two thousandths =
→ 54.002

8. Six thousand two hundred eight ten thousandths =
→ 6200.0008
*(Note: “six thousand two hundred” is the whole number part; “eight ten thousandths” means 0.0008)*

9. Two thousand four and sixty-three thousandths =
→ 2004.063

10. Eight hundred and twelve thousandths =
→ 800.012
*(Note: “eight hundred” is the whole number; “twelve thousandths” = 0.012)*

---

Explanation:

- For Part A, we read the whole number part first, then say “AND”, then read the decimal part as a fraction based on its place value:
- .04 → 4 hundredths
- .06 → 6 hundredths
- .789 → 789 thousandths
- .2512 → 2512 ten-thousandths
- .025 → 25 thousandths

- For Part B, we convert the word form back to numerical form:
- The word before “and” is the whole number.
- The word after “and” tells us the decimal fraction.
- We write the digits accordingly without spaces, as instructed.

Example breakdown for #8:
“Six thousand two hundred” = 6200
“eight ten thousandths” = 0.0008 → so total = 6200.0008

A.
1. SIX AND FOUR HUNDREDTHS
2. SIX HUNDRED AND SIX HUNDREDTHS
3. THREE AND SEVEN HUNDRED EIGHTY-NINE THOUSANDTHS
