What is 1 3/40 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 1 3/40 as a decimal is
1.075
Exact, terminating: denominator 40 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 has only 2s and 5s · 3 decimal places
1 3/40: whole part, then 3 ÷ 40
Whole part 1 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 40 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 30 | 0 × 40 + 30 | 0 |
| 30 | 300 | 7 × 40 + 20 | 7 |
| 20 | 200 | 5 × 40 + 0 | 5 |
The remainder reaches 0 after 3 steps → 0.075 ends.
1 + 0.075 = 1.075
