24/22 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 from the whole. It has two parts: numerator (number on the top) here, 24 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 22. A decimal is a way to represent a 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.

What is 24/22 as a decimal?

24/22 as a decimal

Answer

 

24/22 in decimals can be simplified to approximately 1.0909. It is a recurring decimal, showing that it will repeat the same digits infinitely.

 

Explanation

 

To get 24/22 in decimal, we will use the division method. Here as 24 is larger than 22, we can directly divide the numbers. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:

 

Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator because the numerator (24) will be taken as the dividend and the denominator (22) will be taken as the divisor.

 

Step 2: Divide 24 by 22 directly. 22 goes into 24 one time, so we write 1 in the quotient place.

 

Step 3: Subtract 22 from 24, which gives 2.

 

Step 4: Bring down a 0 in the dividend place to make it 20.

 

Step 5: 22 does not go into 20, so write 0 in the quotient and bring down another 0 to make it 200.

 

Step 6: Divide 200 by 22, which gives approximately 9, since 22 times 9 is 198.

 

Step 7: Subtract 198 from 200 to get 2, and continue the process. The division process continues with the remainder cycling through the same values, showing a recurring decimal.

 

The answer for 24/22 as a decimal will be approximately 1.0909...
