Find the decimal form of each value to the nearest ten thousandth (3 decimal places) and determine if the following values are rational or irrational
√ 16 = 4 (Rational)
3.14/ 2 = 1.57… (irrational)
To find the decimal form of √16 to the nearest ten thousandth (3 decimal places), we can simply take the square root of 16, which is 4.
Therefore, the decimal form of √16 is 4.
This value is rational because it can be expressed as a fraction (4/1).
For 3.14/2, when dividing 3.14 by 2, we get 1.57.
Therefore, the decimal form of 3.14/2 to the nearest ten thousandth (3 decimal places) is 1.570.
This value is rational because it can also be expressed as a fraction (157/100).
