Answer:
0.3125
Explanation:
There are two different methods:
make an equivalent fraction with the denominator as a power of
10
. This can be
10
,
100
,
1
,
000
,
10
,
000
,
100
,
000
and so on...
5
16
×
625
625
=
3125
10000
Once the denominator is a power of
10
, the number of zeroes indicates how many decimal places there will be.
3125
10000
=
0.3125
←
4
decimal places
This method only works if the denominator is a factor of one of the powers of
10
divide the numerator by the denominator
5
16
=
5
÷
16
=
0.3125
