In order to write
(16)/(25) as a decimal, we need to find a fraction equivalent to
(16)/(25) with a 100 in the denominator. Notice that if we multiply the numerator and the denominator of
(18)/(25) by 4, we get the equivalent fraction
(64)/(100) which we can now write as a decimal. Remember that the hundredths place is two places to the right of the decimal point so we can write 72/100 as 0.72.
