Answer 1

Decimal comes from the Latin word decimus, meaning tenth, from the root word decem, or 10. The decimal system, therefore, has 10 as its base and is sometimes called a base-10 system. ... The decimal point, for example, refers to the period that separates the ones place from the tenths place in decimalnumbers.
