Step 1
Given; in the decimal number point 98703, that is .98703 the zero holds what place value?
Step 2
Since "Hundred Thousandths" ends in a "th", we are talking decimal. And, since you do not see the word "and" in this written form, there is no whole number. The last digit of this decimal must be in HUNDRED THOUSANDTHS place, the 5th place after the decimal point.
