Decimals are a way to represent numbers that are not whole numbers. When we talk about decimals up to the hundredths place, we mean numbers that have two digits after the decimal point. For example, 0.25 is twenty-five hundredths, and 1.50 is one and fifty hundredths. Understanding decimals is super useful for things like measuring, cooking, and even handling money!
