Answer:

20.25

Explanation:

Since 4/6 is the same as 0.25 and 20 doesn't need to be changed, 20 4/16 is equal to 20.25 in decimal form
Hope this helps :)

Answer:

20.25

Explanation:


\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fraction:}\:a(b)/(c)=(a\cdot \:c+b)/(c)


20(4)/(16)=(20\cdot 16+4)/(16)=(324)/(16)


\mathrm{Write\:the\:problem\:in\:long\:division\:format}


16\overline\:


\mathrm{Divide\;32\;by\;16\;to \;get\;2}


\begin{matrix}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ 16\overline\smallspace324\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\underline{\emptyspace3\emptyspace2}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace0\emptyspace4\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\end{matrix}


\mathrm{Divide\;4\;by\;16\;to \;get\;0}


\begin{matrix}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace2\emptyspace0.\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ 16\overline\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\underline{\emptyspace3\emptyspace2}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace0\emptyspace4\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\underline{\emptyspace0}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace4\emptyspace0\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\end{matrix}


\mathrm{Divide\;80\;by\;16\;to \;get\;5}


\begin{matrix}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\emptyspace2\emptyspace0.\emptyspace2\emptyspace5\:\:\:\\ 16\overline\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \underline{\emptyspace3\emptyspace2}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \emptyspace0\emptyspace4\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \underline{\emptyspace0}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \emptyspace4\emptyspace0\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\\ \underline{\emptyspace3\emptyspace2}\:\:\:\:\:\/\\\emptyspace8\emptyspace0\:\\ \underline{\emptyspace8\emptyspace0}\:\\\ \emptyspace0\end{matrix}


\mathrm{The\:solution\:for\:Long\:Division\:of}\:(324)/(16)\:\mathrm{is}\:20.25
