Whole number times decimals?
A decimal, in this context, is a useless description: a decimal can be an integer, a rational number or an irrational number. Furthermore, a whole number times a decimal fraction can be a whole number, a rational number or an irrational number.For example:4 * 3.5 = 14 is a whole number times a decimal fraction = whole number.4 * 3.3 = 13.2 is a whole number times a decimal fraction = rational fraction.4 * 3.14159... [ie pi in decimal form] = 4 * pi, which is an irrational number.
Do decimal divisors and decimal dividends have to have the same number of decimal places in order to have a whole number quotient?
No. One counter example : 1.5 ÷ 0.378 = 4 1.5 has 1 dp, 0.378 has 3 dp and the quotient is a whole number.
How do you convert a mixed fraction into a decimal number?
To convert a mixed number into a decimal, first you must convert the fraction part of the mixed number into decimal form. Do this by dividing the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number). Then, place the whole number that was originally part of the mixed number as the whole number for the decimal. For example, let's convert this mixed number into a decimal: 51/4. 1/4 = 0.25 The whole number originally part of the mixed number, 51/4 is 5. Place 5 as the whole number for the decimal. Therefore, the answer is 5.25.
What are the difference between a decimal and a whole number?

Is a whole number a decimal?

Is 0.43 a whole number?
No. A whole number will be on the left side of the decimal point. For example, a 2 in 2.43 is a whole number.
What is the difference between multiply a whole number by a whole number and multiply a whole number by a decimal?

When multiplying a decimal by a whole number is the number of decimal places in the product the same as the number of decimal places in the decimal factor?
Not necessarily: for example, consider 0.5 * 4 = 2
If you multiply a decimal number and a whole number will you have a decimal in the answer?
Often, yes. But it depends on the numbers. For example, if you multiply 1.5 x 2, you get 3 as the answer (whole number). But if you multiply 1.5 x 3, you get a decimal of 4.5
Do you have to have a whole number when you write a decimal out?
No, because if it was a whole number it would contain no fractions or decimals. Decimal numbers should be preceded by a 0, which is a whole number, if there is no other whole number. For example, if you are changing 18/100 to a decimal, it should be written as 0.18 rather than just .18.
What is the whole number part?
It is the part of the number before the decimal point or fraction For example, in the number 5.38, the whole number part is 5 For example, in the number 6 and 1/2 the whole number part is 6
