10000 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question about decimal representation. Understanding place value is crucial when working with whole numbers and decimals. A whole number like 10000 can be written in decimal form by adding a decimal point followed by zeroes, if necessary. The decimal point separates the whole number from any fractional part, although in this case, there is no fractional part. We represent whole numbers as decimals to align with systems that require decimal notation.
