There is no opposite. Decimal is one of many ways of representing numbers. The other ways: binary, octal, hexadecimal etc are equivalent alternatives, not opposites.

What is 0.42 as a percent?
to make decimal into percentage, you move the decimal 2 places to the right. so 0.42 would be 42% .4 would be 40% also it's the same for the percentage to be in decimal, but the opposite. move the decimal 2places to the left. 42% would be .42 9.7% would be .097 i hope it helped you :)

How is the way the decimal point moves when you divide a number by a power of ten the same as when you multiply?
It is not. For positive powers of ten, the decimal point moves to the right when multiplying and to the left when dividing. For negative powers of ten the point moves in the opposite directions.
How does the decimal point move when you rewrite a percent as a decimal and when you rewrite a decimal as a percent?
It's pretty simple. Every percent is out of 100. There is no possible percent higher than one hundred. So, when a percent needs to be changed into a decimal, you move it 2 decimal points to the left. This is so because percent means parts of 100, where 100 has 2 zeros. For example: 80% is 80/100. 80/100 = .8, so you move the decimal point two times to the left. When you rewrite a decimal as a percent, you do the opposite; move it two decimal points to the right. Make sure that the decimal is not greater than one because one is equal to 100% and as I said before, nothing can be greater than 100%. For example: .9934 = 99.34% or 99.34/100; move the decimal two to the right. I hope that helps.

How do you find the opposite of a decimal number?
The answer depends on what you mean by "opposite": whether it is the additive inverse or the multiplicative inverse.
Why is the opposite of a decimal a whole?
The question is based on a false premise: the opposite of a decimal is not a whole. A decimal is simply a way of representing a number is such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. Therefore 4 is a decimal, 2.75 is a decimal. There are different ways of defining opposite. The additive opposites of the two numbers are -4 and -2.75 so one of them is a whole number, the other is not. The multiplicative opposites are 0.25 and 0.3636... so neither of them are whole.
Does a decimal have a opposite?
No. A decimal is a way of representing a quantity so that the place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the number to its right. So the opposite would be to find a way not to represent a number?! What is the point of that?

How do you work out a right angle triangle where you know the opposite side and the adjacent side to get the opposite angle?
The ratio of the opposite side over the adjacent side is called the tangent.Expressing the fraction (opposite/adjacent) as a decimal, you can find the angle by looking in a table of values for the tangents of various angles.
