<p>To convert 1/16 into a decimal, we will use the<a>division</a>method. Here, as 1 is smaller than 16, we will use decimal placement to perform the division. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (1) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>, and the denominator (16) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (1) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>, and the denominator (16) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>
6
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 1 is smaller than 16, it can't be divided directly, so we will add a decimal point and a zero to the dividend, making it 10, and place a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 1 is smaller than 16, it can't be divided directly, so we will add a decimal point and a zero to the dividend, making it 10, and place a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>.</p>
7
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 10, we can divide it by 16. However, 10 is still smaller, so we will add another zero, making it 100.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 10, we can divide it by 16. However, 10 is still smaller, so we will add another zero, making it 100.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Determine how many times 16 fits into 100. 16 × 6 = 96 is the closest, so we write 6 in the quotient and subtract 96 from 100, leaving 4.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Determine how many times 16 fits into 100. 16 × 6 = 96 is the closest, so we write 6 in the quotient and subtract 96 from 100, leaving 4.</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 40, and repeat the division process. 16 × 2 = 32, so we write 2 in the quotient and subtract 32 from 40, leaving 8.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 40, and repeat the division process. 16 × 2 = 32, so we write 2 in the quotient and subtract 32 from 40, leaving 8.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Again, bring down another 0, making it 80. 16 × 5 = 80, so we write 5 in the quotient and subtract 80 from 80, leaving 0. The division process concludes as the remainder is 0.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Again, bring down another 0, making it 80. 16 × 5 = 80, so we write 5 in the quotient and subtract 80 from 80, leaving 0. The division process concludes as the remainder is 0.</p>

<p><strong>The answer for 1/16 as a decimal is 0.0625.</strong></p>
