ALWAYS Between the units number and the tenths decimal number.
e.g. 4.5
'4' is the units ' 5' is the tenths decimal number.
or
'2' is the units number and ;3; is the tenths decimal number.
When adding or subtracting decimals keep the decimal point directly below each other. It makes for far easier manipulation
Hence (adding)
102.345
004.500 (Note the use of trivial zeroes '0'.
____-----
106.845
======
Rather than
102.345
4.5
Much more difficult and far easier to make a mistake.
120 is already in decimal form. You do not need to have a decimal point for a number to be in decimal form. All that is required is that the place values go down by a factor of one-tenth every time you move one digit to the right. Also the digit to the left of the decimal point (or where the decimal point would have been) has a unit place value.
It is a number with a decimal point. It is not necessarily a decimal number because 24 (no decimal pont) is a decimal number.It is a number with a decimal point.

It is not necessarily a decimal number because 24 (no decimal pont) is a decimal number.
You write it as 0.004 because to the left of the decimal point is ones, to the first zero to the right of the decimal point is tenths, to the second zero to the right of the decimal point is hundredths, and so on.
34.67, rounded to the nearest decimal point, is 34.7.
A whole number can have (a) no digits after the decimal point - in which case it terminates at the decimal point, or (b) has a non-terminating sequence of 9s immediately after the decimal point.
The decimal point, if required, goes after 60 million. That is, after the seventh zero.
It can go anywhere.
One way is to multiply the numbers ignoring the decimal point. If the first multiplicand has d1 digits after the decimal point, and the second has d2 digits after the decimal point, then their product has (d1 + d2) digits after the decimal point.An alternative for the second stage is to estimate the answer to determine where the decimal point should go.
Parts of a number like 3 tenths always go on the right side of the decimal point. Whole numbers go on the left side of the decimal point 3 tenths = .3
A decimal point is the actual point. A decimal is the number that has a decimal point in it. For example; 28429.018
The decimal is already in its correct place in 76.8923176847.
Because it is a point that is used in the decimal system of counting. Decimal means based on ten.
0.3 is a decimal. The decimal point is the (.) between the 0 and the 3.

Move the decimal point over 2 spaces Examples: 20%=0.20 56.3%=0.563
It is 2.015
