Question

write \\(\frac{77}{20}\\) as a decimal.

Explanation:

Step1: Divide 77 by 20

To convert the fraction $\frac{77}{20}$ to a decimal, we perform the division: $77 \div 20$.

Step2: Perform the division

20 goes into 77 three times (20×3 = 60), with a remainder of 17. Bring down a zero to make it 170. 20 goes into 170 eight times (20×8 = 160), with a remainder of 10. Bring down another zero to make it 100. 20 goes into 100 five times (20×5 = 100) with no remainder. So putting it together, we have 3.85.

Answer:

3.85
