177 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple topic on decimal representation. Firstly, we have to understand whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is a complete entity without any fractional part. A decimal, on the other hand, is a way to express numbers that are not whole using a decimal point (.) to separate the integer part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole number, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
