Question

How do you get 14 divided by 9 as a decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

14 divided by 9 = 1.5

The result of 14/9 is a non-terminating, repeating decimal.

Answer 2

Answer:

1.56 [?]

this question's wording was slightly confusing but I think this is what you meant

Step-by-step explanation:

by dividing the two numbers, (you can use long division or a calculator) while they are not in a fraction state (don't rewrite it as $\frac{14}{9}$, actually divide

14 by 9) you will end up with a number:

1.55555556

(repeating decimal)

So, you can either write this as 1.5 with a little dash over the 5

Or, you can round the decimal to 1.56 .

(method: by actual division)
