a . eight and sixteen tenths
b. eight and sixteen hundredths
c. eight hundred sixteen hundredths
d. eight hundred sixteen thousandths​

Answer 1

The correct word form of 8.16 is b. eight and sixteen hundredths

Since the number is 8.16, we have 8.16 = 8 + 0.16 = 8 + 16/100

Since we have 8 in the units place, it is pronounced eight.

Also, we have our decimal part 0.16 = 16/100 which is pronounced as sixteen hundredths.

So, combining both we have eight and sixteen hundredths.

So, the correct word form of 8.16 is b. eight and sixteen hundredths
