19 3/5 as a decimal SHOW YOUR WORK ALSO PLS

19 3/5 = 19.6 decmial.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

19 + 3/5

Put 19 + 3/5 over the common denominator 5. 19 + 3/5 = (5×19)/5 + 3/5:

(5×19)/5 + 3/5

5×19 = 95:

95/5 + 3/5

95/5 + 3/5 = (95 + 3)/5:

(95 + 3)/5

95 + 3 = 98:

98/5 = convert to decimal 19.6

Check:

Convert to a mixed number:

98/5

Divide 98 by 5:

5 | 9 | 8

5 goes into 9 at most one time:

| 1 | |  

5 | 9 | 8 |  

- | 5 | |  

| 4 | 8 |  

5 goes into 48 at most 9 times:

| 1 | 9 |  

5 | 9 | 8 |  

- | 5 | |  

| 4 | 8 |  

- | 4 | 5 |  

| | 3 |  

Read off the results. The quotient is the number at the top and the remainder is the number at the bottom:

| 1 | 9 | (quotient)

5 | 9 | 8 |  

- | 5 | |  

| 4 | 8 |  

- | 4 | 5 |  

| | 3 | (remainder)

The quotient of 98/5 is 19 with remainder 3, so:

19 3/5 = 19.6 decmial.
