A decimal number is simply 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 the required decimal representation is 90200, exactly as in the question.

Why is the si metric SI system called a decimal system of measurement?

The SI (International System of Units) is called a decimal system of measurement because it is based on powers of ten, making it easy to convert between units by simply moving the decimal point. Each unit in the SI system is defined in relation to base units, and prefixes such as kilo-, centi-, and milli- indicate multiples or fractions of ten. This structure simplifies calculations and enhances clarity in scientific and everyday measurements.

What is 1 foot as a decimal?

It is 1 foot, exactly as in the question. Decimal refers to counting in tens: it is the way in which we normally represent numbers, with the place value of each digit being ten times the place value of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not need a decimal point and decimal certainly does not imply the metric or SI system of measurement.


How do you write 65cm in decimals?

You could write is as 65 centimetres. A decimal number is simply 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. Adding zeros after the decimal point is wrong because they imply a degree of accuracy (significant figures) for which there is no justification. Furthermore, the decimal system has nothing to do with the SI system of measurement.
