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.

Place values in decimals?

Each position has a place-value that is 10 times as much as the position that is one to the right of it; or 1/10 as much as the position that is one to the left of it.The starting point is that the right-most digit in a whole number, or of the whole part in a number with decimals, has a place-value of 1.


How do you divide decimals by decimals?

Same way you divide whole numbers with whole numbersConvert the divisor (number by which you are dividing) into a whole number by multiplying it by 10 enough times;multiply the dividend (the number into which the divisor is being divided) by the same number of times of 10s;the original division is the same as dividing the new dividend by the new whole number divisor.eg divide 6.519 by 1.23convert 1.23 to a whole number by multiplying twice by 10: 1.23 x 10 x 10 = 1.23 x 100 = 123twice multiply 6.519 by 10 also: 6.519 x 10 x 10 = 6.519 x 100 = 615.96.519 ÷ 1.23 = 516.9 ÷ 123 which can be calculated:................ 5.3 ........ ---------123 | 651.9........... 615........... -----.............. 36 9.............. 36 9.............. ------..................... 0Therefore 6.519 ÷ 1.23 = 5.3

What are whole decimals?

There is no such thing as a whole decimal.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. So a decimal number can just as well be a whole number as it can be a fraction of a mixed number.


What do percent and decimals have in common?

They both measure numbers that are in between two whole numbers. Example: 56, (56.5,565%) 57. * * * * * That is so not true. You can have 200% which is equivalent to 2 - a whole number. And 23 is a decimal. You do not need a decimal point or a fraction. A decimal number is simply one in which each place value is ten times greater than the one to its right. Both percent and decimals are ways of representing numbers.
