128 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question on decimal representation. Firstly, we need to understand numbers and decimals. A number can be represented in different forms, and when we talk about decimals, we're referring to a numeric representation that uses a decimal point to separate the whole part from the fractional part. The digits to the left of the decimal point represent the whole number, while those to the right represent the fractional part, if any.
