float temperature = 98.6; / /declaration and initialization of the variable

Explanation:

In the programming language, there are two types of data types for the decimal number that is float and double.

Double data type is used when we require to print more than two decimal value and it also contains both integer type and decimal type value. Float data type is used when we required to print one or two decimal value, it only contains and print decimal value.

So, we have to print one decimal value, that's why we use float data type.
