19/100 as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we need to understand fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of a whole. It has two parts: the numerator (the number on the top), here 19, which represents how many parts out of the whole; and the denominator (the number below), here 100, 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, and those to the right represent the fractional part.

What is 19/100 as a decimal?

19/100 as a decimal

 

Answer:

 

19/100 in decimal form is written as 0.19. This is a terminating decimal, meaning it ends after two decimal places.

 

Explanation:

 

To convert 19/100 into a decimal, we will use the division method. Since 19 is smaller than 100, the division process will provide a decimal number. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the process:

 

Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator; the numerator (19) is the dividend, and the denominator (100) is the divisor.

 

Step 2: As 19 is smaller than 100, it can't be divided directly, so we add a decimal point to the quotient and 0s to the right of 19, making it 1900.

 

Step 3: Divide 1900 by 100. 100 goes into 1900 exactly 19 times, resulting in a quotient of 0.19.

 

Step 4: The division results in a remainder of 0, indicating the decimal is terminating.

 

Therefore, the answer for 19/100 as a decimal is 0.19.
