Answer: sixteen and two-hundred fifteen ten thousandths

You'd have to correspond the numbers to words and associate the period with and

Answer: Sixteen and two hundred fifteen ten-thousandths

We read off "16" as normal. Nothing too special about it.

The same goes for the 0215 which is really just 215, even though this part is after the decimal point. However, because it is after the decimal point, we tack on a "ten thousandths" to indicate it's a fractional non-whole portion

Note: if you change the 0 to something like a 3, then we would have 3215 which is less than ten-thousand. This might help you remember that four decimal spots out is the ten-thousandth place value.

another note: the "and" mentioned in the answer is a key word that indicates "decimal point". Only use it for decimal points. Do not use it for a number like "215". In other words, don't say "two hundred and fifteen" because that might seem like you are trying to say 2.15 or something along those lines.
