Zero is in the first decimal place of 98. An integer does not have any decimals, however, can be represented with decimals by placing first a decimal point ("dot") after the number and as many zeros as one wishes thereafter.

For example, 98 is equal to the following values:

(a) 98

(b) 98.0

(c) 98.00

(d) 98.00000000000000

Because the first decimal position is the first one to the right of the decimal point (as represented by examples b, c and d, above), the value is zero.
