300 — the earliest known use of zero as a decimal digit in the Old World is introduced by Indian mathematicians. c. 400 — the Bakhshali manuscript uses numerals with a place-value system, using a dot as a place holder for zero . 550 — Hindu mathematicians give zero a numeral representation in the positional notation Indian numeral system.
A real number can be expressed by a finite number of decimal digits only if it is rational and its fractional part has a denominator whose prime factors are 2 or 5 or both, because these are the prime factors of 10, the base of the decimal system. Thus, for example, one half is 0.5, one fifth is 0.2, one-tenth is 0.1, and one fiftieth is 0.02.
Sample variance of x: s 2 x: 11 exact Mean of y: 7.50 to 2 decimal places Sample variance of y: s 2 y: 4.125 ±0.003 Correlation between x and y: 0.816 to 3 decimal places Linear regression line y = 3.00 + 0.500x: to 2 and 3 decimal places, respectively Coefficient of determination of the linear regression: 0.67 to 2 decimal places
The Hindu–Arabic system is designed for positional notation in a decimal system. In a more developed form, positional notation also uses a decimal marker (at first a mark over the ones digit but now more commonly a decimal point or a decimal comma which separates the ones place from the tenths place), and also a symbol for "these digits recur ad infinitum".

The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈ d iː n ər i / [1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers (decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.
It is possible to construct piphilogical poems in Chinese by using homophones or near-homophones of the numbers zero through nine, as in the following well known example which covers 22 decimal places of π. In this example the character meaning "mountain" (山 shān) is used to represent the number "three" (三 sān), the character meaning "I ...
