What is a decimal number ?
A decimal number is a number that expresses a quantity in terms of a power of 10. It uses a decimal **point **to separate the integer part of the number from the **fractional **part. The fractional part is expressed as a sum of multiples of **powers **of 10, where the power of 10 is determined by the position of the decimal point.
For example, the decimal number 3.14 represents the number 3 + 0.14, where 0.14 can be expressed as 14/100 (14 hundredths).
Given that,
Two numbers,
7.03 & 7.0
7.03 is greater than 7.0. The reason for this is that the number after the decimal point represents the fractional part of the number, and the digit to the right of the decimal point represents a smaller fraction.
For example, 7.03 can be represented as 7 + 0.03,
while 7.0 can be represented as 7 + 0.0.
So, it's clear that 7 + 0.03 is greater than 7 + 0.0,
Therefore, 7.03 is **greater **than 7.0.

The number 7.03 is greater than 7.0 because both numbers have the same integer part (7), but the fractional part of 7.03 (0.03) is greater than the fractional part of 7.0 (0.0). Thus, 7.03 > 7.0.
