Ok, say I have the number 3,456.57. Starting from the right and going to the left. The 7 is in the "hundredths" place. The 5 is in the "tenths" place. All numbers behind the decimal are fractions, therefore they have "ths" on the end of them. Tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc. The numbers in front of the decimal are whole numbers so they don't have "ths" on the end of them because they're not fractions. The 6 is in the "ones" place. The 5 is in the "tens" place, 4 in the "hundreds" place and 3 in the "thousands" place. If I wrote the number out in word form it would look like "Three thousand four hundred fifty-six and fifty seven hundredths" I think so. If I wrote the number in expanded form it would just be a big addition problem, see. 3,000+400+50+6+0.5+0.07 = 3,456.57!

A decimal number is simply a representation of a number such that the place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. It gives no information as to the location of the decimal point and so the number of decimal places.
The value of a digit in a number is called its place value.
