        Here, in the number 43.614, the place value of 6 is                              (six-tenths), 1 is
                                                                                    10

        in the usual way and then each digit separately.
        e.g.,                                  524 . 207


                 Whole number part              Decimal part

        It is read as five hundred twenty-four point two zero seven.

        Similarly,  the  number  43.614  is  read  as  forty-three  point  six  one  four.
        Also, the number can be expanded as:
                                                           6       1        4
                              43.614 = 40 + 3 +                +       +
