<p>It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part from the whole. It has two parts: the numerator (number on the top) here, 26 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 100. A decimal is a way to represent the number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and that to the right represents the fractional part.</p>

<p>To get 26/100 in decimal, we will use the<a>division</a>method. Here, as 26 is smaller than 100, we will use the decimal method, which will give us 0.26. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown<a>of</a>the process:</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (26) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (100) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Since 26 is smaller than 100, it can't be divided into a whole number. We will add a decimal point in the quotient place and a zero to the dividend, making it 260.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 260, we can divide it by 100. Let's see how many times 100 fits into 260.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>260 divided by 100 gives 2, which is written in the quotient place. Subtracting 200 from 260 gives 60.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>260 divided by 100 gives 2, which is written in the quotient place. Subtracting 200 from 260 gives 60.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place to make it 600, and divide 600 by 100, which gives 6. The division process ends here, as the remainder becomes 0. This process gives us a terminating decimal.</p>
