Answer:

0.95

Explanation:

we know that

A terminating decimal have a finite number of digits after the decimal point

we have


(19)/(20)

Convert to terminating decimal

Multiply both numerator and denominator by 5


(19*5)/(20*5)


(95)/(100)

Remember that

To divide a whole or a decimal number by 100, move the decimal point two places to the left.

so


(95)/(100)=0.95
