Yes, 2 1 8 as a decimal is equal to 2.125.
To understand this, let’s break it down:
The number 2 1 8 can be read as two whole units (2), one-tenth (1) and eight-hundredths (8). In decimal notation, we can represent this as follows:
- The 2 represents the whole number part.
- The 1 represents one-tenth, or 0.1.
- The 8 represents eight-hundredths, or 0.08.
Putting these together, we have:
- 2 (the whole number) + 0.1 (one-tenth) + 0.08 (eight-hundredths)
This sums up to:
2 + 0.1 + 0.08 = 2.1 + 0.08 = 2.125
Therefore, 2 1 8 expressed in decimal form is indeed 2.125.
