Problem

Conversion of mixed fractions into decimal numbers \$14 5/6\$

Step

Given Mixed Fraction

\$14 5/6\$

Hint

Firstly, we need to convert a mixed fraction into a improper fraction.

Step

Add the result to the numerator (5):

\$84 + 5 = 89\$

Step

The new numerator is 89, and the denominator remains 6.

Step

Then the improper fraction is

\$89/6\$

Step

To convert this fraction into a decimal number, divide the numerator by the denominator

\$89/6 =14.8\$

Step

So, the decimal representation of the mixed fraction \$89/6\$ is 14.8
