Answer:

9.366667 (can write it as 9.3667 with a line over the two sixes)

Explanation:

We know it has 9, but then we need to add 11/30.

-----

30 | 11

.3666666

-----

30 | 110 <--- add a zero

90

------

200 <--- add a zero

180

------

200 <-- add a zero

notice a pattern? it's an infinite decimal. You can express it as
9.3667\\

or with a line over the sixes to indicate it is infinite. We add the 7 as it does not end at 6.

Answer:

9.3667

Explanation:

To express the mixed number
\(9 (11)/(30)\) as a decimal, you can add the whole number part (9) to the decimal part. For the fractional part, divide the numerator (11) by the denominator (30):


\[ (11)/(30) \approx 0.3667 \]

Now, add the whole number and the decimal part:


\[ 9 + 0.3667 = 9.3667 \]

Therefore,
\(9 (11)/(30)\) as a decimal is approximately
\(9.3667\).
