I need help with 5th grade homework. They are asking for an equivalent decimal for 0.3 3.10 ect. ?

Update:

Yes it is a bit silly, and it IS already in decimal form. That is what is confusing me. All the homework page says is write an equivalent decimal for each. Then it has these numbers listed:

0.3 3.10 16.53 1.400 2.7 9.5100 5.00 4.75 87.05

I REALLY do not know what they want?

    0.3= 3/10

    3.10=31/10

    ummm...

    0.3 and 3.1 ARE decimals.

    if you mean equivalent fractions then 0.3 is 3 tenths which is 3/10

    and 3.1 is 3 and one tenth so either 3and1/10 or 31/10.

    well they are already in decimal form so there is no equivilant decimal the only other way of writing it in decimal form would be:

    0.3 = 0.30 although this is a bit of a silly way of writing it it is correct.
