3 29/50 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand mixed numbers, fractions, and decimals. A mixed number includes a whole number and a fraction. A fraction represents a part of the whole, with a numerator (number on the top) indicating how many parts are being considered and a denominator (number below) showing how many parts make up a whole. A decimal is a way to represent numbers that are 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.
