MCQ
Assertion (A): Unlike decimals can be converted into like decimals.
Reason (R): Putting any number of zeros to the right of the decimal point does not change its value.
  • A
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason $(R)$ are true and Reason $(R)$ is the correct explanation OF Assertion (A).
  • B
    Both Assertion $(A)$ and Reason $(R)$ are true and Reason $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
  • D
    Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
(c): Unlike decimals can be converted into like decimals by making their number of decimal places equal.
$\therefore A$ is true.
Putting zeros to the right of the decimal point does change the value of the decimal.
For example, $23.7 \nRightarrow 23.07, \therefore R$ is false.
