Question

Write 96 39/40 as a decimal

Answer 1

Hey there!

$96\frac{39}{40} = \frac{3,879}{40} = 96.975 \\ \\ Answer: 96.975$

How I got my result: Solve the mixed  fraction: $96\frac{39}{40}$ by multiplying the outer number ( $96$ ) by the denominator ($40$ ) then whatever $96(40)$ equals we add the numerator ($39$ ) to it, then get the answer and keep the denominator the same.  Lastly, divide our new number by $40$ and it'll give you your result

Anyhow!

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
