11/100 as a Decimal

Answer

11/100 in decimals can be written as 0.11. This is a terminating decimal, meaning it ends after two decimal places.

Explanation

To convert 11/100 into a decimal, we will use the division method. Here, since 11 is smaller than 100, we use the decimal method.

Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:

Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator because the numerator (11) will be taken as the dividend, and the denominator (100) will be taken as the divisor.

Step 2: As 11 is smaller than 100, we can't divide it directly. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make it 110, and add a decimal point in the quotient place.

Step 3: Now that it is 110, we can divide it by 100. 100 goes into 110 once, so we write 1 in the quotient place and subtract 100 from 110, giving us a remainder of 10.

Step 4: Bring down another 0 in the dividend place to make it 100. Divide 100 by 100, which goes once, and we write 1 in the quotient place.

Step 5: Subtract 100 from 100, resulting in a remainder of 0, indicating the division process is complete.

The answer for 11/100 as a decimal will be 0.11.
