Question

Jessica went to the mall and used 1/6 of her money on lunch. What is the fraction of her money expressed as a decimal?

Answer 1

The answer is C. .1666667. If one takes 1 and divides it by 6, this is the number one would get.

Answer 2

The answer to this problem situation would be D.
To solve this problem you would simply divide 1 by 6 (the line between the 1 and 6 in the fraction is a division sign with the denominator always out and the numerator in)
1) 1÷6= 0.1666666666667
Now you traditionally and usually would round up but if the direction says otherwise then round down.
2) 0.17
And 0.17 would be your final answer!
