7/200 as a Decimal

Answer

7/200 in decimals can be written as 0.035. It is a terminating decimal, showing it ends after a few digits.

Explanation

To get 7/200 in decimal, we will use the division method. Here as 7 is smaller than 200, we will take help of the decimal method which will give us 0.035. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process

Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator because the numerator (7) will be taken as the dividend and the denominator (200) will be taken as the divisor.

Step 2: As 7 is smaller than 200, it can't be divided. Here, we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 7 as 70, and add a decimal point in the quotient place.

Step 3: Now that it is 70, we can divide it by 200. Since 70 is still smaller than 200, we add another 0 to make it 700.

Step 4: 700 divided by 200 is 3 with a remainder of 100. We will write 3 in the quotient place.

Step 5: Bring down another 0 in the dividend place to make 1000, then repeat the division process.

Step 6: 1000 divided by 200 is 5 with no remainder, completing the division.

The answer for 7/200 as a decimal will be 0.035.
