that dot means reccurent, its usually above a decimal number, & means that digit continues on forever.
E.g. put 1/3 as a decimal.
this wouldn't be 0.3 it would be 0.3 (with the dot above the 3)
so for the example above the answer is 0.333333333333333333333333333(continues on forever)
By the way, the number can have a dot on more than one of its digits

What does a horizontal line over a number mean in mathematics?
It means recurring, so rather than writing out an endless line of 3s, 3.333333333333 etc they would write the 3.333 with the last 3 having a line over it.
What does a horizontal line over a decimal number mathematics?
It is an indication that the string of digits under the horizontal line repeats for ever.
What is the maths symbol e?
That symbol is used for a number, which is approximately 2.718. It is one of the most important numbers in mathematics, together with pi - both appear over and over again, in many places. The number "e" is the base of the natural logarithms.
How do you divide 1.4?
when ever you divide numbers with a point you move the point over to the right making it 14. but is your dividing it into 28. you have to add a 0 at the end of the 280. because u moved the point on the 1.4, so also if the number was 1.40 you can either move the point two spaces over or one just dont forget to add a zero for ever one number you move the point over.
Who discovered mathematics and how?
Mathematics was not so much discovered as developed over time by many different sources and cultures.
In mathematics what does a number with a line over it mean?
It means recurring, so rather than writing out an endless line of 3s, 3.333333333333 etc they would write the 3.333 with the last 3 having a line over it.

What does it mean when it says give the coordinates of two points?
Every point on the graph has a pair of numbers that tell exactly where the point is.-- The first one tells what number on the x-axis the point is directly over (or under).-- The second one tells what number on the y-axis the point is directly right (or left) of.These two numbers are called the 'x' and 'y' coordinatesof the point.
What does a line over a whole number mean?

What is 2 over 10 expressed as a number with a decimal point?

What does reminder mean in math?
I'm hoping that's "remainder." In Mathematics, the remainder is the number that is left over in a division problem in which one quantity does not exactly divide another: 23 divided by 3 is 7, remainder 2.
Is 0.3 with a bar over it a rational number?
Yes. 0.3 with a bar over it is 1/3, which is a rational number.
What does reflection over the y-axis mean?
Example: if you have a point with the coordinates (2,4), a reflection over the y-axis will result in the point with coordinates (-2,4).
What does the term over mean in mathematics.. like put five over ten and mulitply by 100 to get the percentage that type of thing?
Actually, the over is used in fractions. Five over ten means the five is on top of ten with the line in the middle.
