179 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand numbers and decimals. A whole number is a number without fractions or decimals. Decimals are a way to represent numbers that are not 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, and those to the right represent the fractional part. In this case, we will consider 179 as a decimal representation.
