The decimal 0.25 is a quarter of the whole (a mile in this case).
Write 2 ways in which whole numbers and decimal numbers are different
To write 41.50 in words, you would write "forty-one and fifty hundredths." This breaks down the number into its whole number and decimal parts, with "forty-one" representing the whole number 41 and "fifty hundredths" representing the decimal 0.50.
1/2 = .5 1/2 is a half a whole, and one whole number is 1. so half is 0.5
It is one and forty three hundredths.
The decimal 0.25 is a quarter of the whole (a mile in this case).
Since 100% is one as a whole, 120% is 1.20 as a decimal.
0.031 = thirty-one thousandths.

1.00
10.0
First, look at it as a whole number plus a fraction (part of a whole). Then write the whole number (15) and beside that write the fraction (one fourth). Now take the fraction and convert it to a decimal, which is 1 divided by 4. It will be 15 1/4, which converts to decimal form as 15.25
To write one hundred and one thousand four hundred and eleven-hundredths in numbers, you would write it as 101,400.11. The whole number part is 101,400, and the decimal part is .11, which represents eleven-hundredths. The decimal point separates the whole number part from the fractional part, which is expressed as a decimal.
As the 82 are whole numbers, it is 82.00 as a decimal
4
1.5FractionsYou have the fraction 4/8.This reduces down to 1/2.A half in decimal format will always be .5now you must place your whole before the decimal to get 1.5
1/2 = .5 1/2 is a half a whole, and one whole number is 1. so half is 0.5
