1 answer

The expanded form of 23.75 can be expressed by separating the whole number part from the decimal part.

We can break it down as follows:

  • The whole number 23 can be represented as \(20 + 3\).
  • The decimal part 0.75 can be represented as \(0.70 + 0.05\) (which is \(0.7 + 0.05\)).

Putting it all together, we have:

\[ 23.75 = 20 + 3 + 0.70 + 0.05 \]

So, the expanded form of 23.75 is:

\[ 20 + 3 + 0.70 + 0.05 \]
