77 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question about expressing whole numbers as decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions or decimals, while a decimal is a way to represent numbers using a decimal point to separate the whole part from any fractional part. In the case of a whole number, the number is simply expressed with a decimal point followed by zero.

Answer:

 

77 as a decimal can be written as 77.0. Since 77 is a whole number, its decimal representation includes a decimal point followed by zero.

 

Explanation:

 

To express the whole number 77 as a decimal, we simply add a decimal point and a zero to indicate there is no fractional part. This is done as follows:

 

Step 1: Take the whole number 77.

 

Step 2: Place a decimal point immediately after the number, turning it into 77.

 

Step 3: Add a zero after the decimal point to make it 77.0. This is a straightforward process, as whole numbers are easily converted into decimals by appending .0 to them.
