what is decimal part of a number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

guys help needed

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Wait! i misread.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the part of number (fraction ) which is less than a unit( 1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i remember it now ; thank u \[x=\lfloor x \rfloor+\left\{ x \right\}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for example 4/3=1.33 it may be written as 1+ (1/3) here 1/3=0.333 is decimal part of this number or fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mukushla dear dont try just to remember expressions only just remember exact meaning of things i too didnt remeber this expression but i knew what it is thats why i was able to explain this. . .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any real number can be written like: \[r=c _{0}/10^{0}+c _{1}/10^{1} +... +c _{n}/10^{n}\] decimal part is : c_1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@myko an example plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[1,234 = 1/10^{0}+2/10^{1}+3/10^{2}+4/10^{3}+0/10^{4}+...+0/10^{n}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

waht is the decimal part of 12.56 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ITS 1.234 0r 1234 @myko

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.234

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decimal part of 12.56?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the number coming after decimal..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but this does not work with the defination given by myko

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, i think i undersut what you whant. By what i wrote befor the decimal part would be everything after decimal point, not just the mane part. So decimal part of the 12.56 = 0.56. By the definition i gave befor it would be all c_n that are comming after comma

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it would be better called fractional part i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah. now that's better answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's a wrong question, :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decimal part of number 2,345 can mean many things... 2,345/10 = 0,2345 3 0,345

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fractional part, decimal point, one tenth are clear noations...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.345 and 2.345/10 are two different numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2,345/10 = 0,2345

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.2345 is one decimal of 2.345

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think you understand what i whant to say

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank u all for ur help :)
