It is a decimal fraction.
It is a terminating decimal.
I think it's a repeating decimal.
It increases the number of digits displayed after the decimal point. It will not change the value of the number.
.625 is a terminating decimal. A decimal is considered terminating if it has a finite number of digits after the decimal point. In the case of .625, there are only three digits after the decimal point, making it a terminating decimal.
It reduces the number of digits after the decimal point in the display, rounding the number as appropriate.
It is a terminating decimal.
Decimal
It is a decimal fraction.
Digits after (to the right of) the decimal point contribute to the accuracy of the number, not its magnitude (or size). So only the digits to the left of the decimal point contribute to the magnitude. Digits after (to the right of) the decimal point contribute to the accuracy of the number, not its magnitude (or size). So only the digits to the left of the decimal point contribute to the magnitude. Digits after (to the right of) the decimal point contribute to the accuracy of the number, not its magnitude (or size). So only the digits to the left of the decimal point contribute to the magnitude. Digits after (to the right of) the decimal point contribute to the accuracy of the number, not its magnitude (or size). So only the digits to the left of the decimal point contribute to the magnitude.
Only if the final digit, after the decimal point, is zero.
the answer is it stays in the same place.* * * * *Not quite.Suppose you want to multiply two decimal numbers A and B. Multiply the two numbers ignoring the decimal points.Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the number A.Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the number B.Add these two numbers together. This is the number of digits you want after the decimal point in the answer. So count back from the end.Example:2.54 * 3.5 (this is number of centimetres in 3.5 inches)254*35 = 8890Number of digits after the decimal point in 2.54 is 2 (5 and 4).Number of digits after the decimal point in 3.5 is 1 (5).2 + 1 = 3 so there must be 3 digits after the decimal point in the answer.Therefore 8890 becomes 8.890NOW, you can simplify it to 8.89

Significant figures are the digits in a number that convey meaningful information about its precision. They consist of all non-zero digits, zeros between non-zero digits, and trailing zeros after a decimal point or before a written decimal point in a number without an explicit decimal point.
Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the first number being multiplied. Count the number of digits after the decimal point in the second number being multiplied. Add the two numbers. This is the number of digits after the decimal point in the answer. But make sure that any trailing 0s are included. To calulate 0.42 * 3.451: 41*3451 = 144942 Digits after point in first number = 2 Digits after point in second number = 3 2 + 3 = 5 So digits after point in answer = 5 So answer = 1.44942 But To calulate 0.42 * 3.45: 42*345 = 14490 <<< it is vital that the last 0 here is kept till the last stage. Digits after point in first number = 2 Digits after point in second number = 2 2 + 2 = 4 So digits after point in answer = 4 So answer = 1.4490 = 1.449
You need to add up the number of digits to the right of the decimal to find the number of digits in the answer. If the first factor has 2 digits to the right of the decimal point and the second factor has 3, the final answer will have 5 digits to the right of the decimal point.
If it has digits after a decimal point, then it's NOT a whole number.
It increases the number of digits displayed after the decimal point. It will not change the value of the number.
