Write each of the following as decimals.
` 23+ ( 2)/( 10) + ( 6)/( 1000)`

Answer

To convert the expression \( 23 + \frac{2}{10} + \frac{6}{1000} \) into a decimal, follow these steps:

### Step 1: Convert the fractions to decimals
- The fraction \( \frac{2}{10} \) can be converted to decimal by dividing 2 by 10:
\[ \frac{2}{10} = 0.2 \]
- The fraction \( \frac{6}{1000} \) can be converted to decimal by dividing 6 by 1000:
\[ \frac{6}{1000} = 0.006 \]

### Step 2: Write the expression in decimal form
Now we can rewrite the entire expression using the decimal values we found:
\[ 23 + 0.2 + 0.006 \]

### Step 3: Align the numbers for addition
To add these numbers, align them by their decimal points:
```
23.000
+ 0.200
+ 0.006
```

### Step 4: Add the numbers
Now, add the numbers column by column:
- Start from the rightmost column (thousandths):
- \( 0 + 0 + 6 = 6 \)
- Move to the next column (hundredths):
- \( 0 + 2 + 0 = 2 \)
- Next column (tenths):
- \( 0 + 0 + 0 = 0 \)
- Finally, the whole number part:
- \( 23 + 0 + 0 = 23 \)

Putting it all together, we get:
\[ 23.206 \]

### Final Answer
The decimal representation of \( 23 + \frac{2}{10} + \frac{6}{1000} \) is:
\[ \boxed{23.206} \]
