Question

Enter the mixed number as a decimal to four decimal places. 9 1 30 = ...

Answer 1

9.0333

Explanation:

Given the mixed number:

`9(1)/(30)`

To find:

The number to four decimal places.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn the method converting the mixed fraction number to a fractional number.

If a mixed fraction is of the form:

`a(b)/(c)`

Then first, we will multiply
`a` with
`c` and then add
`b` to get the numerator of the simple fraction.

Denominator will be the same i.e.
`c`.

Therefore

`9(1)/(30)`

can be written as:

Numerator =
`9* 30 + 1` = 271

Denominator will be the same i.e. 30

Simple fraction equivalent will be:

`(271)/(30)`

And up to, 4 decimal points, the number can be written as:

9.0333
