GED Math Practice Test

The tenths place is the first digit to the right of the decimal point in a decimal number. This means that it represents a value that is 1/10 or 0.1 of the whole number. Option A 0.0001 is in the ten-thousandths place, four places to the right of the decimal point and is much smaller than the tenths place. Option B: 0.001 is in the thousandths place, three places to the right of the decimal point, and again, much smaller than the tenths place. Option C: 0.01 is in the hundredths place, two places to the right of the decimal point, still smaller than the tenths place. Option D: 0.1 is in the tenths place, one place to the right of the decimal point, making it the correct answer. In summary, the correct answer is D because it represents the value in the tenths place, whereas the other options are in smaller decimal places.
