A decimal number is simply a representation of a number such that the place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. It gives no information as to the location of the decimal point and so the number of decimal places.

What digits are in the 74th and 75th decimal places for the value of pi?
8 and 6, respectively.
In the decimal number 2.693 what number is in the hundredth places?
6
What is six times ten to the negative nineteenth power?
6 x 10-19 is the same as 6 x 1/1019. It is easier to understand the exponent as: "How many digits must I move the decimal point to the right (if positive) or to the left (if negative), to write the number out". In this case, move the decimal point (implied decimal point in this case; 6 = 6.0) 19 places to the left: 0.00000000000000000066 x 10-19 is the same as 6 x 1/1019. It is easier to understand the exponent as: "How many digits must I move the decimal point to the right (if positive) or to the left (if negative), to write the number out". In this case, move the decimal point (implied decimal point in this case; 6 = 6.0) 19 places to the left: 0.00000000000000000066 x 10-19 is the same as 6 x 1/1019. It is easier to understand the exponent as: "How many digits must I move the decimal point to the right (if positive) or to the left (if negative), to write the number out".

What is 2.73762 to 2 decimal places?
In order to take a number to 2 decimal places, you first consider only the digits that are 2 decimal places in or greater. In this case that would be 2.73. The next step is to asses the thousandths digit. If it is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, we round up. Otherwise, we leave the number as it is. In this case, the digit is a 7, so we round up. Thus 2.73762 to 2 decimal places is 2.74
How is multiplying a decimal by a decimal different from multiplying a decimal by a whole number?
When multiplying one decimal by another decimal, the result will always have a larger number of digits to the right of the decimal point than either of the two factors. The number of digits to the right is the total of the digits for the two factors.Example:.25 x .3 = .075 (two digits plus one = three)You can make this clearer by putting all three in one of the numbers to start,making one of the factors a whole number..25 x .3 = .025 x 3 = .075Example:.02 x .03 = .0006 (the product is 6, the number of places is 4)In fraction form, this would be2/100 x 3/100 = 6/10000

How do you turn a fraction into a terminating decimal?
Divide the numerator by the denominator. However, not all fractions terminate, for example 1/7 = 0.1428571428571... with the 6 digits 142857 recurring. With these, an approximation to the fraction can be obtained by rounding the decimal to a number of decimal places - the more places, the more accurate the result.

What is six thirteenths in decimal form?
6/13 is a non-terminating decimal, it repeats the digits 461538, ie 6/13 = 0.461538461538461538... Normally this is rounded to a few decimal places, for example to give 6/13 ≈ 0.4615
How do you do decimal word form?
The number before the decimal point is written in word form without suing "and". Next an "and is used where the decimal point appears. Then the number after the decimal point is written out in word form (again, without using "and"). Finally, the inverse power of ten is written and this is based on the number of digits after the decimal point.For 1 digit: tenths 2 digits: hundredths 3 digits: thousandths 4 digits: ten thousandths 5 digits: hundred thousandths 6 digits: millionths and so on.
Is 6.767676 is repeating decimal?
