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: the numerator (number on the top) here, 1 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 10. A decimal is a way to represent the number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal 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.
1 1/10 in decimals can be written as 1.1. It is a terminating decimal, meaning it does not continue indefinitely.
To convert 1 1/10 to decimal, we will use the division method for the fractional part. The whole number 1 remains as it is. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:
Step 1: Identify the whole number and the fraction. Here the whole number is 1 and the fraction is 1/10.
Step 2: To convert 1/10 to decimal, divide the numerator (1) by the denominator (10).
Step 3: 1 divided by 10 gives 0.1. Step 4: Combine the whole number 1 with the decimal fraction 0.1.
The answer for 1 1/10 as a decimal will be 1.1.
