How do you write 13/60 in decimal form?

Question

Please show your work, including division.

Answer 1

To make ANY fraction into decimal form, take the numerator (the top number) and dividing it by the denominator (the bottom number).

So, say you have X/Y. Take the X and divide it by the Y. That will be the decimal equivalent.

Hope that helped with your problem and in general!

Answer 2

Simply divide the numerator by its denominator.
13 divided by 60 equals 0.216666666
How to arrive at this decimal form, notice that you cannot divide 13 by 60. So, all you got to do is put "0" after 13. But before you put "0", be sure to put decimal point after 13 in this manner.... "13.0" Then that's the time you will be able to divide 130 by 60 which is equal to 2. Because 60 x 2 = 120. Take note that you need to put "." on top of the decimal point in "13.0" So that the answer will be ".2"

60 / 13.000

..........100
.......... -60

............400
..........- 360

..............40

So as to have 2 decimal places, simply round it off to the nearest tenths. And the answer will be 0.23. You will arrive at 0.23 if the next given digit is from 5-9. If it's from 0-4, the answer will be 0.21
Hope this will help you solve irregular fractions.
