School is part of real life... if you are using equations in school that is real.
Juggling.
we use angles in everyday life by surveying constuction ,msurgery , military and sports .
we use it in math. it is called inverse operation
when simplifying fractions
terminating decimal is when the quotient has the remainder of zero.
The rational fraction, one third, can be represented as a non terminating decimal, with the digit 3 repeating for ever.
Finding a place value in a terminating decimal is easy. When placing the decimal always remember to place it at the tenth.
All jobs will use terminating decimals but most jobs will also require you to be able to work with recurring decimals and many will need decimal numbers which are neither terminating nor recurring.
It is called a rational number. The rational numbers are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division (not dividing by 0). The fact that it is not terminating is not important at all. In fact, if we use other bases besides base 10, we will see that the set of numbers that are rational or irrational doesn't change. However, if we use another base, for example base 3, then the number 1/3 in base 3 can be represented with a terminating "decimal" (technically not decimal). The set of rational numbers that have terminating "decimals" depends on the base.
The given number has a specified number of digits. A non-terminating number, is one were the digits go to inifinity. e.g. Terminating ; 3.333 Non-terminating(recurs to infinity) ; 3.333.... ( Note the use of three or more stops to indicate recurrance).
YES!!!! Be it a terminating decimal or a decimal recurring to inifinity. Terminating decimal 2.222222 = 2 2/1000000 = 2 1/500000 As a recurring decimal 2.222.... ( Note the use of stops). Let P = 2.222.... Then 10P - 22.222... Subtract 9P = 20 ( Note the recurring decimals subtract to zero). P = 20/9 P = 2 2/9 NB When writing recurring decimal to infinity, the number is written as 2.222... ( with at least three stops/periods). Otherwise it is deemed to be a terminating decimal.
You use place value for all decimal numbers that contain fractional parts. You also use place value for all decimal integers other than those containing only one-digit.
Decimal numbers are real numbers. In C and C++ we use the float, double and long double data types to represent real numbers.
pi is the quotient obtained by the dividing the circumference of a circle by its diameter. It is not a rational number and so cannot be expressed as a fraction or a terminating decimal. You can not give the exact value of pi as a decimal no matter how many places you use.

One situation is when shopping for grocery items ... things will be priced using the decimal system: Tomato's, $1.59 per pound. Knowing that 1.59 is less than 1.75 could be beneficial.
