The decimal equivalent of 3 by 4 of an inch is?

Answer 1

This question is a bit confusing. Are you asking what the decimal equivalent of 3/4 inch is?

To find ANY decimal equivalent of a fraction (it doesn't matter if it is for length--the 'inch' in your question, time, math et cetera), you will always use the same process.

A fraction is just another way to write a division question. Therefore, what you do is take the denominator (bottom number) and divide it into the numerator (top number). So you have in the phrase 3/4, 3 divided by 4, or 3 ÷ 4, or 4 divided into 3. That answer would be 0.75 in decimal notation, which could also be stated as 75 hundredths, or 75%.
