87 24/25 ...this is a mixed fraction ..so in order to get in in decimal we first need to convert it into unlike fraction ..for that we do the following ...

87 24/25
=> multiply the whole number and the denominator ..
=>87 X 25 = 2175
=>now add the numerator to this product ...
=>2175 + 24 = 2199 ..
=> so now we get an unlike fraction which when we divide we get the answer in decimals ..
=> 2199/25 = 87.96 ...
that is ... 87 24/25 in decimals ...

Hope it helps !!!
