19. You are adding air to a tire. The air pressure in the tire should be 32 27/200 pounds per square inch. What decimal should you watch for on the digital pressure gauge?​

32.135. If you divide 27 by 200, you get a quotient of .135. I thought of 25 to make up a total of 200. That would be an amount of 1/8 which is .125. Therefore, I kept the 32 as my whole number and then divided the fractional part which was 27/200.
