How do you write 957 as a decimal?
A decimal number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point. Adding zeros after the decimal point is wrong because they imply a degree of accuracy (significant figures) for which there is no justification.So the answer is 957 - exactly as it appears in the question.

What is 4.99 when rounded off?
Rounding off means rounding to the nearest integer, thereby eliminating any numbers to the right of the decimal point. If the numbers on the right side of the decimal point are greater than, or equal to 0.5 (e.g. 2.7), then you delete all the numbers to the right of the decimal point and increase the remaining number by one. If they are not greater than, or equal to 0.5 (e.g. 5.1), then you delete all the numbers to the right of the decimal point and leave the remaining number as it is.In the case of 4.99 the numbers to the right of the decimal point are greater than 0.5 so we delete the numbers to the right of the decimal (4.99) then increase the remaining number by one (4+1=5). The answer is 5.

How do i turn a decimal into a fraction?
In decimal numbers the numeral on the left side of the point are the whole numbers and the numbers on the right of the decimal point are the parts/fractions of a number. So in this decimal number 3.4 ---- 3 is a whole number and 4 is a fraction or part of a whole number. Because there is only one number on the right side the 4 represents 4 tenths. 3.4 can be written as 3 4/10 ( three and four tenths). If there are two numbers on the right side of the decimal point then they are 100ths. So in this number 5.75 the .75 is 75 hundredths = 5 75/100. If there are three numbers on the right side of the decimal point then they are 1000ths. So in this number 12.357 the .357 is 357 thousandths = 12 375/1000.
