9 73/100 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

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 (the number on the top), here 73, which represents how many parts out of 100. The denominator (the number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 100. A decimal is a way to represent the 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.

9 73/100 as a decimal

Answer

 

9 73/100 in decimals can be written as 9.73. It is a terminating decimal, meaning it does not repeat infinitely.

 

Explanation

 

To convert 9 73/100 into a decimal, we will use the fraction-to-decimal conversion method. Since the denominator is 100, which is a power of 10, we can directly place the numerator, 73, after the decimal point, using two decimal places because 100 has two zeros. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:

 

Step 1: Identify the whole number and the fractional part. The whole number here is 9, and the fractional part is 73/100.

 

Step 2: Since the denominator is 100, we can directly convert the fraction into a decimal by placing the numerator 73 in the hundredths place.

 

Step 3: Combine the whole number with the decimal fraction to get the final decimal form.

 

Thus, 9 73/100 as a decimal is 9.73.
