Question

Hi sorry to bother but I don't get this problem 9 29/40 converted into a decimal and plz show work so I could understand a little better thanks

Answer 1

So the problem is: 9 29/40. So first convert 9 29/40 to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator 40 by 9 and then add the numerator 29. Place the new numerator (the sum of everything you just multipled and added) which is 389 over the denominator 40 So you should have 389/40 as your final answer. The decimal form is 9.725 in case you wanted it... Hope this helps! :)

Explanation:

Answer 2

take numerator / denominator (29 / 40), leave the whole number (9) alone
