It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of the whole. It has two parts, the numerator (number on the top) here, 11 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 10. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
11/10 in decimals can be written as 1.1. It is a terminating decimal, which means it ends and does not repeat infinitely.
To get 11/10 in decimal, we will use the division method. Since 11 is larger than 10, we can directly divide. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:
Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator because the numerator (11) will be taken as the dividend and the denominator (10) will be taken as the divisor.
Step 2: Divide 11 by 10. The whole number part will be placed in the quotient.
Step 3: 10 goes into 11 one time, so we write 1 in the quotient place.
Step 4: Subtract 10 from 11, which gives 1.
Step 5: Bring down a 0 in the dividend place and make it 10. Divide 10 by 10, which gives 1. The division process ends here, as we have no remainder. This gives us the terminating decimal: 1.1.
The answer for 11/10 as a decimal will be 1.1.
