79 as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand that a number can be represented in different forms, including decimals. A decimal is a way to represent a number 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, while those to the right represent the fractional part. In this case, when we talk about converting 79 into a decimal, it is already in its decimal form because it is a whole number and does not have any fractional part.

Answer:

 

79 as a decimal is written simply as 79.0.

 

Explanation:

 

The number 79 is an integer, which means it is a whole number without any fractional part. To express it as a decimal, you can simply add a decimal point followed by a zero, making it 79.0. This does not change its value, but it shows that there is no fractional part.

Writing an integer with a decimal point and a zero after it is a standard way to express a whole number in decimal form.
