Question

Express each answer as a decimal. Type your answer in each box. a. 5÷4

Answer 1

1.25

Explanation:

`5 / 4 = (5)/(4) = (5 * 25)/(4 * 25) = (125)/(100) = 1.25`

By the way, I multiplied by 25 because you need to make the denominator a power of 10 (10,100,1000,10000 ect..) to be able to convert something into decimal. And if you're multiplying the denominator you habe to multiply the nominator too
