decimal system and zero are the contribution of the Indians to the humanity.
The first mathematician is Arya bhatt.
The zero enables the use of place values which are fundamental to the decimal system. It allows you to differentiate between 109 and 19: the 1 in the first number represents the number of hundreds whereas in the second number the same digit represents the number of tens.
Zero and decimal point are both missing
It is the first non-zero digit, starting from the left. It can be before or after the decimal point.
The first people to use the decimal system and the number zero WERE NOT THE CHINESE! I am learning about this in school. The ancient Hindu's invented them during the Gupta Empire.

it was karen velasquez she was the first to do this if it wernt for her we wudnt have decimals tht would help us in our future :)
it was used on a base 10 number system

One main Indian innovation that is used throughout the world is the number zero. Indian mathematicians were the first to recognise and use zero as a real number. About 500BCE Indian scholar Pingala used the sanskrit word śūnya to represent zero. In 498CE Aryabhata developed a ten digit decimal notation system that is the basis of our 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, system today.
Zero and decimal point are both missing
You write it as 0.004 because to the left of the decimal point is ones, to the first zero to the right of the decimal point is tenths, to the second zero to the right of the decimal point is hundredths, and so on.
The Mayans were the only civilization to have a zero in their number system The zero was a shell.
The tenths place in a decimal fraction is the first digit after the decimal point - in this case, a zero.
