Description: Write each fraction as a decimal. If the decimal is a repeating decimal, write using the bar notation and then round to the nearest hundredth. (3)/(4)

step 1 For exercise 49, we'll use long division here. 4 can go into 30, 7 times. We have 7 times 4 is 2

Key Concepts

Fraction to Decimal Conversion

This concept involves dividing the numerator by the denominator to convert a fraction into its decimal form. It is a fundamental arithmetic operation that translates a ratio represented as a fraction into a number expressed in the base-ten system, which is often easier to interpret in various mathematical contexts.

Repeating Decimals

Repeating decimals occur when the division of the numerator by the denominator yields a sequence of digits that repeats infinitely. In mathematics, this is typically denoted using bar notation where a line is placed over the repeating digit or group of digits, indicating that the pattern continues indefinitely.

Rounding Decimals

Rounding decimals is the process of trimming a decimal number to a certain number of decimal places, making it easier to work with or interpret. When rounding to the nearest hundredth, look at the digit in the thousandth place to decide whether to round up or keep the number as is, ensuring the approximation is as accurate as possible to the original value.
