3 7/16 = 3.4375 as a decimal. There are a few ways to figure it. You can just do the division 7.0000 ÷ 16 = 0.4375 using a calculator or by long division.

Another way is if you already know that 1/16 = 0.0625 {which is a good one to have memorized}, then you can multiply this by 7 to arrive at 0.4375, or you can perform addition of 7/16 = 3/8 + 1/16 = 0.3750 + 0.0625 = 0.4375, or you can subtract 7/16 = 1/2 - 1/16 = 0.5000 - 0.0625 = 0.4375. However you arrive at the decimal part, then just add 3 to get 3.4375, for the final answer.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
