Solution

The correct option is A 5.004
Let's first convert 50.04 from decimal to fraction.

We know 50.04×100=5,004. As division is just the opposite of multiplication, we can write 5,004÷100=50.04.

Hence,
50.04÷10
=(5,004÷100)÷10
(Replcaing 50.04 by 5,004÷100)

=5,004100÷10

=5,004100÷101

=5,004100×110
(As division is just the opposite of multiplication)

=5,004×1100×10

=5,0041,000

=5,004÷1,000

=5,004.0÷103

=5.0040
(Dividing 5,004.0 by 103 moves the decimal point 3 units to the left)

=5.004
