how do you write one thousandth?

anonymous · Answer

So as a fraction we have $$\frac{76}{1000}$$This means we take $76.0$, and move the decimal to the left 3 times.  So we get $0.076$.

my i ask somethings else related to this same question?

anonymous · Answer

The reason I put 76.0 is because it is the same as 76, but it let you see where the decimal place was located.

anonymous · Answer

The reason why you moved to the left is because the division by 1000 was making it smaller, and numbers get smaller as the decimal place moves to the left.  Since there are 3 zeroes in 1000, we move the decimal left 3 places.
