To write the number 174.273 in expanded form, you need to break it down into its individual place values.
Starting from the leftmost digit, let's work through each portion of the number:
1. The digit 1 is in the hundreds place. So, we can write it as 1 x 100 = 100.
2. The digit 7 is in the tens place. So, we can write it as 7 x 10 = 70.
3. The digit 4 is in the ones place. So, we can write it as 4 x 1 = 4.
4. The digit 2 is in the tenths place. So, we can write it as 2 x 0.1 = 0.2.
5. The digit 7 is in the hundredths place. So, we can write it as 7 x 0.01 = 0.07.
6. The digit 3 is in the thousandths place. So, we can write it as 3 x 0.001 = 0.003.
Now, let's add these parts together:
174.273 = 100 + 70 + 4 + 0.2 + 0.07 + 0.003.
Therefore, the expanded form of 174.273 is 100 + 70 + 4 + 0.2 + 0.07 + 0.003.
