Im not sure if you are saying 74/5 or 7 and 4 fifths but in the case you'r saying 74/5 you would first round to see the highest number that 5 can go to without being a decimal. Which would be 70 so you would count how many times 5 can go into 70, which would be 14, so the left over is 4/5 so you would check to see if it can be simplified which it can't so the final answer is 14 and 4/5
The correct answer is: 8
Explanation:
Given mixed number:
[tex] 7\frac{4}{5} [/tex]
In order to convert a mixed number into a decimal number, follow the steps mentioned below:
Multiple 7 with 5 and add the numerator to the answer you get by multiplying 7 with 5. After that, write that result in the numerator and divide it with 5:
Step-1:
Multiply 7 with 5.
7*5 = 35
Step-2:
Add numerator value, which is 4 in this case, in 35
35 + 4 = 39
Step-3:
Rewrite the fraction.
[tex] \frac{39}{5} [/tex]
Step-4:
Calculate.
[tex] \frac{39}{5} = 7.8 [/tex]
Now, as the number at the tenth place after the decimal point is greater than 5, we have to round it off to 8.0.
Hence the correct answer is 8.
