Question

Convert into decimals (use your calculator): a) 6/38 b) 45/55 c) 4/28 d) 35/28 e) 1030/2030

Answer 1

Answer:

$a.\hspace{3} \frac{6}{38} = 0.15789474\\\\b.\hspace{3} \frac{45}{55} = 0.81818181\\\\c.\hspace{3} \frac{4}{28} = 0.14285714\\\\d.\hspace{3} \frac{35}{28} = 1.25\\\\e.\hspace{3} \frac{1030}{2030} = 0.50738916$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers, expressed as decimal numbers, are obtained from the operation of division between the integer of the numerator and the integer of the denominator. Then:

$a.\hspace{3} \frac{6}{38} = 6\div38 = 0.15789474\\\\ b.\hspace{3} \frac{45}{55} = 45\div55 = 0.81818181\\\\c.\hspace{3} \frac{4}{28} = 4\div28 = 0.14285714\\\\ d.\hspace{3} \frac{35}{28} = 35\div28 = 1.25\\\\ e.\hspace{3} \frac{1030}{2030} = 1030\div2030 = 0.50738916$
