65 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question about decimal representation. Firstly, we need to understand whole numbers and decimals. A whole number is a complete number without fractions. Decimals are used to represent numbers that are not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. In this case, since 65 is a whole number, its decimal representation is simply itself followed by a decimal point and zero, i.e., 65.0. This indicates that there are no fractional parts following the whole number.
