6 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions; an integer. Decimals are numbers expressed in the base-ten system, which use a (.) or a decimal point to separate the whole part from any fractional part. In the case of whole numbers, the part to the right of the decimal is simply zero.
