A decimal is a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point. So 5 cents is a perfectly legitimate way of writing the amount as a decimal number.
A nickel is worth 5 cents, which is equivalent to 0.05 in decimal form. This is because there are 100 cents in a dollar, so 5 cents is 5/100 or 0.05 as a decimal.
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! One nickel is worth 5 cents, which is 5/100 of a dollar. So, if we write that as a decimal, it would be 0.05. Just a tiny little piece of the dollar, but oh so important in its own way!
