Best Answer

A decimal represents a numerical value, less than one, by tens, hundreds, thousands, etc. For example: 1.25 is the whole number "one" plus 0.25, a value less than one. It is also 1 and 1/4th because 0.25 is 25/100ths, which reduces down to 1/4.

Like decimals are when two or more decimals are reduced down they are the same

my answer before was wrong. Like decimals have the same amount of numbers after the decimal example 5.21 and 9.62
