<p>It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of the whole. It has two parts: the numerator (number on the top) here, 45 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 20. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal point to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 45 by 20. Since 45 is greater than 20, we can proceed with the division.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Determine how many times 20 fits into 45. 20 goes into 45 two times since 20 × 2 = 40. Write 2 in the quotient place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Subtract 40 from 45, which gives a remainder of 5.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down a 0 to make it 50. Now, divide 50 by 20, which fits 2 times since 20 × 2 = 40. Write 2 in the quotient place.</p>
