ATQ,

P : Q = 5 : 12 = 10 : 24

Q:

2/3 as a decimal

A) 0.47 B) 6.77
C) 0.67 D) 0.07
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 0.67

Explanation:

To convert a fraction into decimal, just take the number on top which we called the numerator and divide it by the number at the bottom which we called the denominator.

2/3

How it comes :

÷ 0 bring down the decimal point.

20 ÷ 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

20 ÷ 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

20 ÷ 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

etc...

This gives the recurring decimal 0.6666...

If we round off to two decimals , then it becomes 0.67.

 

Hence, decimal fraction of 2/3 = 0.67.
