A decimal number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point. Adding zeros after the decimal point is wrong because they imply a degree of accuracy (significant figures) for which there is no justification.
We use the decimal numbering system in almost all our daily activities. Although computers use binary or other systems, the data are generally input in decimal form, converted to binary for processing, and the result reconverted to decimal for output.
