A number with one digit after (to the right of) the decimal point is said to have one decimal place. The number can also be said to be rounded to the nearest tenth.
12.15 Also said as 'Twelve point one five'.
The dot is called a decimal point. It is said as "and." For example, 10.5 would be said as ten and five tenths. Hope i helped! *LolSmileeFace*
A decimal is said the same as the fraction. 0.2 is said as two tenths,so the fraction is 2 . ---- 10
Scientific notation can be found in various areas of everyday life, such as in measurements of distances across the universe (e.g., the distance between galaxies), expressing very large or small numbers in physics and chemistry (e.g., Planck's constant or Avogadro's number), and in financial calculations involving large sums of money (e.g., national debt or multinational corporate revenue).

77 hundredths as a decimal is 0.77. As a decimal it is said as 'zero point seven, seven'. NOT 'point seventy seven' as the digits are being given the wrong names. As a fraction it is 77/100.
Six hundredths as a decimal is '0.06'. #NB Remember in decimal form. to the left of the decimal point are 'Units'. First digit to the right of the decimal point are 'tenths', the second digit is 'hundredths', ; the third digit is thousandths. et.seq. NNB For such as decimal as 0.123. it is said as ' zero, point, one, two, three.' NOT as 'point one hundred and twenty three', because the digits are being given the incorrect name So your 0.06 is said as 'zero point zero, six.' as a fraction it is 6/100, which cancels down to 3/50 .
There is no smallest decimal - just as there is no largest number. If x was said to be the smallest decimal, inserting a zero immediately after the decimal point would give a number equal to a tenth of x - ie smaller than x.

One ninth (1/9) is represented in decimal notation by the number 0.111... which can also be written as 0.1(rec) or 0.1 with a small dot or horizontal line above the '1'.This can also be written as '0.' followed by any number of '1's. There is no way to write down this number in its entirety, as there are infinitely many '1's following the decimal place. This number is said as "zero point one, recurring".
A number is said to be in scientific notation when it is written as a number between 1 and 10, times a power of 10 (power is an integer). Thus, 0.0000395 is written in scientific notation as 3.95 x 10^-5.
This is my way of doing it:The first step is, you basically multiply like normal vertically. So for example, say you want to multiply 632 x .035 :632x .035---------3160+18960---------22120After you have done that, you simply count haw many numbers there are after each decimal point. In this case there is only one decimal point with 3 numbers after it. Let me first say that when you have a whole number, there will ALWAYS be an invisible decimal point at the end of the last number. With that in mind, you now know that there is an invisible decimal point at the end of 22120 which was the partial answer to the multiplication problem above. So now you add the decimal point and the zero to then end of your number(it's ok to have a zero at the end because that indicates nothing, you don't have to, but the point is necessary):22120.0 When you have this done, you will move the decimal point to the left however many spaces that equals how many numbers you had after the decimal point in total from the original numbers. So, above we said that there was three numbers after the decimal point in the number 0.035, so now you move the decimal point three spaces to the left in your multiplication answer:22120.0 ------> 22.1200 From here you can get rid of all the zeros after the decimal point, for they are not necessary in this step:22.12 That's the answer, and that is how you multiply a whole number x a decimal number.Hope I helped
Standard Form, Scientific Notation and Exponential Notation are different expressions for the same thing. When a number is expressed as a value between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10 it is said to be in Standard Form (or Scientific Notation or Exponential Notation). 3.4 x 10^14 : 8.9 x 10^-4 : 1.2 x 10² are all written in standard form. 15.28 x 10³ is NOT in standard form as 15.28 is not a number between 1 and 10. When converted to 1.528 x 10^4 then it is in standard form.
