Morphology
The compound is partially compositional: combining 'real' and 'number' signals a particular kind of number (as opposed to imaginary or abstract), so a learner can infer it refers to a class of numbers. However, the precise mathematical/computing sense (numbers with fractional parts, floating‑point approximations) is technical and not fully derivable from everyday senses of the constituents, so full understanding usually requires prior exposure or subject knowledge.
Etymology
Real number in computing borrows its name from math: real means 'not imaginary' and number is a value that can have a decimal or fraction. So programmers call a data type a real number when it holds decimals, even though the computer often keeps those values as an 'approximation'.
