Answer:

0.9

Explanation:

14/15 = 0.933333333 IF:

1. You first change it into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

14 ÷ 15

2. You will get a recurring decimal.

0.933333333

3. The first digit after the decimal is in the position of the 'tenths'

0.9

4. You should use only two digits after the decimal to calculate

0.93

5. Since the number 3 is less than five, it will change into a zero and get eliminated.

∴ The answer will be = 0.9
