Which decimal is equivalent to 0.6000? Choices: (A)0.600 (B)4.000 (C)0.06 (D)0.008

Identify digits: Identify the non-zero digits in 0.6000; they are 6 followed by zeros. Compare choices: Compare each choice to see if they match 0.6000 after ignoring trailing zeros. Choice (A): Choice (A) 0.600, when trailing zeros are ignored, becomes 0.6 which is equivalent to 0.6000. Choice (B): Choice (B) 4.000, when trailing zeros are ignored, becomes 4 which is not equivalent to 0.6000. Choice (C): Choice (C) 0.06, when trailing zeros are ignored, remains 0.06 which is not equivalent to 0.6000. Choice (D): Choice (D) 0.008, when trailing zeros are ignored, remains 0.008 which is not equivalent to 0.6000.
