600 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal representation. Firstly, we have to understand whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions; an integer. A decimal is a way to represent numbers that are not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from any fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part. However, for whole numbers with no fractional part, the decimal representation simply includes a decimal point followed by zeros.

600 as a decimal

Answer

 

600 in decimal form is written as 600.0. This is because 600 is already a whole number, and its decimal representation just includes a decimal point followed by a zero to indicate there is no fractional part.

 

Explanation

 

To express 600 as a decimal, we recognize that it is a whole number. Whole numbers can be written in decimal form by adding a decimal point followed by zero, indicating that there is no fractional part.

 

Step 1: Identify the whole number 600.

 

Step 2: Write it in decimal form as 600.0, where the decimal point is followed by zero, representing no fractional part.

 

The answer for 600 as a decimal is therefore 600.0.
