Answer :
[tex]\frac{12}{75}=\frac{12:3}{75:3}=\frac{4}{25}=\frac{4\times4}{25\times4}=\frac{16}{100}=0.16[/tex]
For this case we have the following fraction:
[tex] \frac{12}{75} [/tex]
Dividing the numerator and the denominator between 3 we have:
[tex] \frac{\frac{12}{3}}{\frac{75}{3}} [/tex]
Then, multiplying the numerator and the denominator by 4 we have:
[tex] \frac{4}{25} = \frac{4}{25} *\frac{4}{4} [/tex]
We observe that we have a number divided by 100. Therefore, we must move the comma two units to the left:
[tex] \frac{16}{100} = 0.16 [/tex]
Answer:
The number in its decimal form is given by:
[tex] \frac{12}{75} = 0.16 [/tex]
