Answer:

A point(.) to separate the ones places from tenths place in a decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the symbol used to separate the ones places from the tenths place in decimal numbers.

We use a point(.) to separate the ones places from tenths place in a decimal.

The place value chart for a decimal is as follows:

Hundreds Tens Ones . Tenths Hundredths Thousandths

For example:

56.98 is a decimal number.

Its expansion can be written as:

[tex]56.98 = (5\times 10) + (6\times 1) + (9\times \frac{1}{10}) + (8\times \frac{1}{100})[/tex]

We used a point to seperate 6 in ones place from 9 in tenths place.
