It is a decimal fraction.
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.So the answer is 957 - exactly as it appears in the question.
7.23x10^-4. Move the decimal place to the right. The number of times you move the decimal is the same number as the exponent.
Move the decimal point two places to the right. 0.09 = 9% 0.90 = 90% 9.00 = 900%
Move the decimal point two places to the right. 150
4 significant figures. once put in scientific notation you will see 2.057 X 10^-2 You will ignore the last zero since it is to the farthest right past the decimal and not necessary.
To the left of a decimal point are whole numbers. On the right of a decimal point are parts of a whole number.
If you mean the numbers to the right of the decimal point, they comprise the fractional part of the number.
yes. any thing you have on the right side of the decimal point(.) is a decimal:)
No matter the number, the tenths place is the first to the right of the decimal point. In numbers with no decimal point, the tenths place is zero.
why does multiplying numbers by ten move the decimal point to the right
A decimal number is not always smaller than a whole number. This is a decimal number 2.45 The number on the left of the decimal point shows the whole numbers. The numbers on the right of the point shows the parts/fractions. This number is not a whole number .098 This number is a whole number 2.00 This number has whole numbers and parts/fractions of the whole 2.098
Almost all numbers that we use in daily life are decimal numbers. The place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. And that is all that is required of decimal numbers. A decimal point is not necessary.
In decimal numbers the numeral on the left side of the point are the whole numbers and the numbers on the right of the decimal point are the parts/fractions of a number. So in this decimal number 3.4 ---- 3 is a whole number and 4 is a fraction or part of a whole number. Because there is only one number on the right side the 4 represents 4 tenths. 3.4 can be written as 3 4/10 ( three and four tenths). If there are two numbers on the right side of the decimal point then they are 100ths. So in this number 5.75 the .75 is 75 hundredths = 5 75/100. If there are three numbers on the right side of the decimal point then they are 1000ths. So in this number 12.357 the .357 is 357 thousandths = 12 375/1000.
It makes the value of the orginal number larger.
Moving a decimal point to the right is the same as multiplying a number by a power of ten. As long as both numbers are multiplied by the same amount, they will retain their same relationship.
Well, darling, when you round 4.99 to the nearest whole number, it becomes 5. But if you want to get technical, 4.99 rounded to the nearest tenth is still 5. So, take your pick and go forth with your newly rounded number.
if the answer is a three digit answer then make sure there is two numbers on the left and one on the right of the decimal pointthe decimal point will remain in the answer given eg 2.2 * 8 = 17.6
