The decimal point is important, when dealing with money, because it differentiates $500 from $5.00.

After the decimal point there will be two digits, these two digits are the number of cents (in America). The number in front of the decimal point is the number of dollars. It is very important that you put the decimal point in the right spot especially when writing checks.
