143 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a straightforward question on number representation. Understanding whole numbers and decimals is crucial. A whole number is an integer without fractions. A decimal is a way to represent fractions or parts of a whole, using a decimal point to separate the whole 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 if any.
