175 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question about converting whole numbers to decimal form. A whole number is an integer without any fractional or decimal part. When converting whole numbers to decimal, one simply adds ".0" to the number to indicate the absence of a fractional part. Decimals use a point to separate the whole number from any fractional part, but in the case of whole numbers like 175, the decimal part is zero.

Answer

175 as a decimal is written as 175.0. Since 175 is a whole number, its decimal representation simply includes a ".0" to indicate the absence of a fractional part.

 

Explanation

To express 175 as a decimal, we recognize that it is already a whole number. The decimal system allows us to write this as 175.0, where ".0" shows there is no fractional part.

 

Step 1: Identify the whole number, which here is 175.

 

Step 2: To express it in decimal form, simply add ".0" to the number.

 

The result is 175.0, which clearly shows the number as a decimal by including the zero after the decimal point to indicate nothing follows in the fractional part.
