11 11/16 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of a whole. It consists of two parts: the numerator (the number on the top), which represents how many parts of the whole are considered, and the denominator (the number below), which shows how many parts make up the whole. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole part, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
