Question

Which calculation and answer show how to convert 13 to a decimal? 16. 0.8125 16) 13.0000 1281 20 16 A. 32 80 80 B. 1.23 13) 16.000 13 30 2 6 40 39 1

Answer 1

Option A is correct

Here, we want to select the option that converts 13/16 to a decimal

To make this conversion, we can use the long division and we will place 13 inside and 16 outside

This makes option B wrong

We have to choose between A and C now

Since 13 is a smaller number compared to 16, the first result of the division should be 0 and not 1 since 13 cannot give a whole number digit when dividing 16 as it is a smaller number

This eliminates option C

This makes option A the correct answer
