What is 2 1/4 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 2 1/4 as a decimal is
2.25
Exact, terminating: denominator 4 = 2 × 2 has only 2s and 5s · 2 decimal places
2 1/4: whole part, then 1 ÷ 4
Whole part 2 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 4 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | 2 × 4 + 2 | 2 |
| 2 | 20 | 5 × 4 + 0 | 5 |
The remainder reaches 0 after 2 steps → 0.25 ends.
2 + 0.25 = 2.25
