Examples with solutions for Converting Decimal Fractions to Simple Fractions and Mixed Numbers: Convert a fraction with a denominator of 10 to a decimal

Exercise #1

4310= 4\frac{3}{10}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the given information
  • Step 2: Convert the fractional part 310\frac{3}{10} to a decimal
  • Step 3: Combine the decimal with the whole number

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: We have the mixed number 4310 4\frac{3}{10} . The whole number is 4, and the fraction is 310\frac{3}{10}.
Step 2: Convert 310\frac{3}{10} to a decimal. Since the fraction's denominator is 10, you can directly convert the numerator to a decimal. 310=0.3\frac{3}{10} = 0.3.
Step 3: Combine the whole number 4 with the decimal 0.3. The mixed number 4310 4\frac{3}{10} in decimal form is 4.3 4.3 .

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 4.3 4.3 .

Answer

Exercise #2

2310= 2\frac{3}{10}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll convert the mixed number 23102\frac{3}{10} into a decimal form.

  • Step 1: Convert the fractional part 310\frac{3}{10} to a decimal. Since the denominator is 10, we convert it directly: 310=0.3\frac{3}{10} = 0.3.
  • Step 2: Combine the whole number and the decimal fraction. The whole number is 22, so adding the decimal gives us 2+0.3=2.32 + 0.3 = 2.3.
  • Step 3: Check against the answer choices provided. The correct decimal equivalent of 23102\frac{3}{10} is 2.32.3 which matches choice number 3.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 2.3 \text{2}.3 .

Answer

2.3 \text{2}.3

Exercise #3

8110= 8\frac{1}{10}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll convert the mixed number 8110 8\frac{1}{10} to its decimal form by converting the fractional part 110\frac{1}{10} and adding it to the integer part.

  • Step 1: Convert the fraction 110\frac{1}{10} to a decimal. Since the denominator is 10, 110\frac{1}{10} is equivalent to 0.1 in decimal form.
  • Step 2: Add the decimal result 0.10.1 to the integer part 88. This gives us 8+0.1=8.18 + 0.1 = 8.1.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 8.1 8.1 , corresponding to choice 2.

Answer

8.1 8.1

Exercise #4

2110= 2\frac{1}{10}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Convert the fractional part 110\frac{1}{10} to a decimal.
  • Step 2: Add the decimal to the whole number part.

Let's work through each step:

Step 1: Convert the fractional part.
The fraction 110\frac{1}{10} can be converted to a decimal because its denominator is 10. This means 110=0.1\frac{1}{10} = 0.1.

Step 2: Add this decimal value to the whole number.
The original mixed number is 21102 \frac{1}{10}. We now add 22 (the whole number) and 0.10.1 (the decimal equivalent of the fraction):
2+0.1=2.1 2 + 0.1 = 2.1 .

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 2.1 2.1 .

Answer

2.1 2.1

Exercise #5

9310= 9\frac{3}{10}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll convert the mixed number 9310 9\frac{3}{10} into a decimal:

  • The mixed number has a whole part 99 and a fractional part 310\frac{3}{10}.
  • To convert the fractional part 310\frac{3}{10} to a decimal, recognize it as 0.30.3, because when a fraction's denominator is 10, the numerator directly represents the portion to the right of the decimal point.
  • Now add the decimal form of the fraction to the whole number:
    9+0.3=9.39 + 0.3 = 9.3.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 9.3\mathbf{9.3}.

Answer

9.3 9.3

Exercise #6

515= 5\frac{1}{5}=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the given mixed number: 515 5\frac{1}{5} .
  • Step 2: Convert the fractional part 15\frac{1}{5} into a decimal by performing the division 1÷51 \div 5.
  • Step 3: Add the resulting decimal to the integer part 5.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: The problem gives us the mixed number 515 5\frac{1}{5} .
Step 2: To convert 15\frac{1}{5} to a decimal, calculate 1÷5=0.21 \div 5 = 0.2.
Step 3: Combine this decimal with the integer part: 5+0.2=5.25 + 0.2 = 5.2.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 5.2 5.2 .
