920 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a basic question about understanding decimal notation. We start by understanding whole numbers and decimals. A whole number represents a complete count without fractions or decimals. In contrast, a decimal is used to represent numbers that are not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. In this case, since 920 is a whole number, it does not have a fractional part and is simply expressed as a decimal.

What is 920 as a decimal?

920 as a decimal

Answer

 

920 as a decimal is written as 920.0. Since 920 is a whole number, it is expressed directly as 920, but adding a decimal point and a zero indicates it is a decimal form.

 

Explanation

 

To express 920 as a decimal, we simply consider the whole number and place a decimal point followed by a zero. This is because 920 is already a complete number, and adding ".0" does not change its value but shows it in decimal notation.

 

Step 1: Identify the whole number, which is 920.

 

Step 2: Add a decimal point to the right of the whole number.

 

Step 3: Add a zero after the decimal point to indicate the absence of any fractional part.

 

Thus, 920 as a decimal is represented as 920.0.
