Decimal number representation is the standard number representation, basically the representation everyone is used to.
In program, decimal is the standard representation, that does not require a prefix, so any un-prefixed number is interpreted as decimal.
Example:
42 = 4 * 10 + 2
There are basically 2 other representations used in Computer science, being hex (hexadecimal, base 16) and binary (base 2).
