159 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal representation. Firstly, we have to understand whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is an entire entity without fractions or decimals. A decimal number uses the base ten system and includes a decimal point to separate the whole number from any fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole number, while those to the right represent the fractional part.
