Answer 2

Given:

$\frac{7}{12}$

To find:

To convert $\frac{7}{12}$ into decimal form

Step-by-step explanation:  

• To convert $\frac{7}{12}$ in the decimal form. we can divide the fraction and can convert it into decimal form.

Solution:

We can see that $12$ is not divided by $7$

In order to divide the fraction, we can put the decimal and can write zero in the divident.

Now we will get $70$,

$70$ can easily be divided by $12$

We will multiply $12$ by $5$ we will get $60$

On subtraction,

$70-60=10$  

Now $10$ is not divisible by $12$

we will now again write zero in the resulting remainder.

we will get $100$

We will now again multiply $12$ by $8$ we will get $96$

On subtraction

$100 -96=4$

Again $4$ cannot be divided by $12$ we will again put a zero in the remainder and will get $40$

Now $40$ is divided by $12$

We will keep on repeating this process

Therefore, we will get $0.58$ a decimal form of a fraction $\frac{7}{12}$
