Most numbers are a decimal number, with zero sometimes being considered and exception. Since any number can have decimals after it (if it happens to be rounded) perhaps it is. The exact number zero, however, is not. Zero denotates a lack of value as opposed to a value - such as .01.
Binary ( 1 0 ) = decimal ( 2 )
A terminating decimal
A decimal number would be between 0 and 1. It represents a fraction, or portion, of 1.
To calculate the decimal value of a bit string: Number the bits from right to left 0 - n. Starting with a decimal value of 0, add 2^(Number of that digit) for each 1 you see in your bit string. The sum is the decimal equivalent to the binary number.
101011 in binary is 32+0+8+0+2+1=43
an exact decimal must be with the number 0. in it or it is not exact.
decimal [ 123 ] = binary [ | | | | 0 | | ]
1x2^2 + 0x2^1 + 1x2^0 = 4 + 0 + 1 = 5 in decimal
0/0=1 or 1.111... (any other whole number)/0=infinity.999... (any decimal number between 0.1 and 1)/0=1.999... (any decimal number between 0 and 0.1)/0=1.1...999... (any decimal number above a.1)/0=infinity.999... (any number between a and a.1)/0=infinity.1...999...

Binary ( 1 0 ) = decimal ( 2 )
(24)10 = ( 1 1 0 0 0 )2
0 over any number always equals 0, so no it can't be written with a decimal.
A terminating decimal
If the decimal is positive, than a negative number is less than 0.
If the decimal is positive, than a negative number is less than 0.
A decimal number, which does not end in 0 cannot be simplified.
