Solution

a) The long sectionalization

The long division method involved the division of the numerator by the denominator. The numerator is the number at the elevation of the fraction and the denominator is the number at the lesser of the fraction.

Let us do the partition $$one\div4$$.

Hence the decimal form of the fraction $$\frac14$$ is 0.25.

b) The equivalent fraction.

The equivalent fraction is the mode of representing a fraction in the class of their multiples. All the equivalent fractions of a fraction simplify to the same fraction.

The equivalent fraction of a fraction tin exist formed past multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the aforementioned number.

Example:

$$\frac23=\frac{2\times4}{three\times4}=\frac8{12}$$

Convert the fraction $$\frac14$$ to equivalent fraction with the denominator 100

$$\frac14=\frac{1\times25}{4\times25}=\frac{25}{100}$$

Here it can be observed that 25 is the number that has to be multiplied to the denominator to get in 100. Since for an equivalent fraction the numerator should be multiplied by the same number as the denominator, we can multiply i with 25.

The rule to catechumen such fractions to decimals is

Count the number of zeros in the denominator.
Move the decimal point of the numerator as many places to the left.
Here we have 2 zeros, so the decimal is to be moved to the left by two places.

$$\frac{25}{100}=0.25$$

We become the aforementioned answer as the previous method.

Remember

Here are some mutual terms yous should be familiar with.

In the fraction $$\frac14$$, the number 1 is the dividend ( our numerator )

The number 4 is our divisor ( our denominator) .
