How to find the decimal equivalent of a fraction - SSAT Elementary Level Quantitative

is nine tenths.

is nine tenths. When we say a decimal, we say the number and add the place-value of the last digit.

is two tenths.

is two tenths. When we say a decimal, we say the number and add the place-value of the last digit.

is three tenths.

is three tenths. When we say a decimal, we say the number and add the place-value of the last digit.

is five tenths.

is five tenths. When we say a decimal, we say the number and add the place-value of the last digit.

The tenths place is the place to the right of the decimal point.

The tens place is the second place to the left of the decimal. The ones place is the place just to the left of the decimal. The second number to the left of the decimal is 2.

All of these numbers are between 1 and 2. Since they all have a 1 in the ones place, we just compare the tenths place digits and put them in order from least to greatest.

The tenths places here are 1, 2, 8, and 9.

So 1.1, 1.2, 1.8, 1.9.

When converting a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator:

Divide 1 by 2. Therefore, the decimal equivalent is 0.5.

When converting a fraction to a decimal, divide the denominator by the numerator:

Round to two decimal places. Since the thousandths place is a 6, we will round up: 0.64.

Divide the numerator by the denominator to convert to a decimal.

2 divided by 5 is 0.4.

When converting a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator.

Divide 4 by 7:

Then, round to two places:

0.57

To find the probability of an outcome, set up a fraction of the part and the total possible.

There are 15 yellow apples, but we need to find the total possible by adding all the apples together.

Since there are 15 yellow apples (part) out of 45 apples in all (total possible) the fraction will be 15 over 45.

We can reduce the fraction by dividing both parts by 15.

Half of 11 is 5.5, so we know that this fraction is a little bit less than one half.

We are looking for another fraction that is less than one half.

Half of 12 is 6, so .

Half of 8 is 4, so .

Half of 5 is 2.5, so .

Half of 19 is 9.5, so .

Half of 7 is 3.5, so .

The only answer that could possibly be less than is .

When converting a fraction to a decimal, divide the denominator by the numerator. Divide 3 by 20. The quotient is 0.15. The question asked you to round to the nearest tenths place, so the correct choice is: 0.2.

When converting a fraction to a decimal, divide the denominator by the numerator. Divide by . The quotient is . The question asked you to round to the nearest hundredths place, so the correct choice is: .

To find the decimal equivalent of any fraction, simply divide the top number by the bottom number. In this problem, divided by equals .

To find the decimal equivalent of a fraction, divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator). In this problem, 4 divided by 5 equals 0.8.
