Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand the representation of whole numbers as decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions, consisting of positive numbers including zero. A decimal is a way to represent numbers that may include a whole part and a fractional part separated by a decimal point. In whole numbers, the numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole part, and there is no fractional part.
