The decimal form is 2.4

Given:

A rational number $\frac{12}{5}$

To Find:

The decimal form the given rational number.

Solution:

• A rational number is a kind of real number, which is in the form of  $\frac{p}{q}$ where q is not equal to zero.
• Any fraction with non-zero denominators is a rational number.
• To convert the given rational number into the decimal form, we have to perform a division of 12 by 5.

• Initially, 5 divides 12, 2 times leaving a remainder of 2 and a quotient of 2.
• Now place a decimal after the quotient, and add a zero after the remainder 2, i.e., 20.
• Now, the remainder 20 is divisible by 5, 4 times and the quotient now becomes 2.4.
• Therefore, the decimal form is 2.4
