How to find the decimal number

information given in the question

Jamila is thinking of a decimal number

the hundredth's digit is twice the size of the tenths digit

the unit digit is 3 less than the tenths digit

decimal numbers refers to numbers less than one and not represented as fraction

unit digit = x

tenths digit = y

hundredths digit = z

written in the form = x.yz

x - 3 = y

x = y + 3

z = 2y

to meet the criteria of z = 2y. y should be between 1, 2, 3, 4

(y + 3) . y (2y)

if y = 1, the number is 4.12

if y = 2, the number is 5.24

if y = 3, the number is 6.36

if y = 4, the number is 7.48
