25/5 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 (number on the top), here 25, which represents how many parts out of the whole, and the denominator (number below), here 5, which shows how many parts make the whole. 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 fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.

Step 2: Divide 25 by 5 directly, as 25 is larger than 5.

 

Step 3: 5 goes into 25 five times exactly, because 5 × 5 = 25.

 

Step 4: Write 5 in the quotient place. The remainder is 0, indicating the division is complete.

 

The answer for 25/5 as a decimal will be 5.
