This is a straightforward question on decimal representation. Firstly, we need to understand the concept of whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions; it is complete by itself. A decimal, on the other hand, is a way to represent numbers that are not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
37 as a decimal is written as 37.0. Since 37 is a whole number, there are no fractional parts, and thus the decimal representation terminates immediately.
To express 37 as a decimal, we start by recognizing that it is already a whole number.
We can represent it with a decimal by simply adding ".0" at the end, indicating that there are no fractional parts.
This gives us 37.0.
