Visualizing decimal numbers and their arithmetic 67 | Arithmetic and Geometry Math Foundations

This video gives a precise definition of a decimal number as a special kind of rational number; one for which there is an expression a/b where a and b are integers, with b a power of ten. For such a number we can extend the Hindu-Arabic notation for integers by introducing the decimal form
