To check whether Matt is correct in writing 9/1000 as 0.9, we can evaluate both representations and compare them.
First, let's examine 9/1000. This fraction represents 9 parts out of a thousand. To convert this fraction to decimal form, divide the numerator (9) by the denominator (1000):
9 ÷ 1000 = 0.009
Therefore, 9/1000 is equal to 0.009, not 0.9. Hence, Matt's reasoning is incorrect.
To verify this calculation, you can use a calculator or basic math operations. By dividing 9 by 1000, you will get the precise decimal value of 0.009.
So, in conclusion, Matt is incorrect in stating that 9/1000 is equal to 0.9. The accurate decimal representation is 0.009.
