9 11/30 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question on decimal conversion. To begin, we must understand fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of a whole. It has two components: the numerator (the number on the top), which here is 11, indicating how many parts out of the whole, and the denominator (the number below), which here is 30, showing 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, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
