What are Decimal Numbers?

Decimal numbers, also known as base-10 numbers, are a numerical system that uses ten distinct symbols (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9) to represent numeric values. These symbols are combined in different positions to represent different magnitudes of numbers. The term "decimal" comes from the Latin word "decem," meaning ten.

In the decimal system, each digit's position in a number represents a power of 10. For example, in the number 456, the '4' represents 4 hundreds (10^2), the '5' represents 5 tens (10^1), and the '6' represents 6 ones (10^0). The number 456 is thus calculated as (4 * 10^2) + (5 * 10^1) + (6 * 10^0).

Decimal numbers are widely used in everyday life, commerce, science, and engineering due to their simplicity and familiarity. They are commonly used in calculations involving money, measurements, and many other practical applications.
