This is a straightforward question on decimal representation. Firstly, we need to understand numbers and decimals. A number like 1000 is a whole number and does not need a fractional part. A decimal, however, is a way to represent numbers that might not be whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part if necessary. For whole numbers like 1000, the decimal representation is straightforward, as there is no fractional part.
1000 as a decimal is simply written as 1000.0.
To express 1000 as a decimal, you recognize that it is already a whole number. In decimal form, we can write it as 1000.0, where 1000 is the whole number, and the .0 indicates there is no fractional part.
This is a terminating decimal because it has a defined end, with no repeating digits.
