Answer:

(9)/(5) = 1.8

Explanation:

For changing the given fraction in decimal form without dividing.

Firstly we have to change the denominator in 2ⁿ5ⁿ form or multiples of 10.

So, Dividing the both numerator and denominator by 2.

i.e.
(9*2)/(5*2) = (18)/(10)

Now, put decimal in numerator from right end after one place (same number of zeroes present in denominator)

⇒
(9)/(5) = 1.8
