This is a straightforward topic on representing whole numbers as decimals. Whole numbers, such as 32, are already complete numbers and do not need conversion to fractions. However, they can be expressed in decimal form by adding a decimal point followed by zero, indicating no fractional part. This helps in mathematical operations where decimals are used.
