3 3/10 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts
Foundation

Advance Topics

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part from the whole. It has two parts: numerator (number on the top) and denominator (number below). For mixed numbers, like 3 3/10, the whole number is separated from the fractional part by a space. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a decimal point (.) 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.
