14 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a simple question on converting whole numbers to decimals. Firstly, we need to understand numbers and their decimal representation. A whole number is a number without fractions; it is complete and not divided into parts. A decimal, however, represents numbers that may not be whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole number part from the fractional part. In this case, since 14 is already a whole number, the decimal representation will simply place a decimal point followed by zeros.
