<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, numerator (number on the top) here, 27 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 64. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal to separate the whole part from the fractional 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 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because numerator (27) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and denominator (64) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

10
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 27 is smaller than 64, it can't be divided, so we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 27 as 270 and add a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 27 is smaller than 64, it can't be divided, so we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 27 as 270 and add a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 270, we can divide it by 64. Let's see how many times 64 fits into 270.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 270, we can divide it by 64. Let's see how many times 64 fits into 270.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>64 goes into 270 four times (64 × 4 = 256). We will write 4 in the quotient place and subtract 256 from 270, which gives 14.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>64 goes into 270 four times (64 × 4 = 256). We will write 4 in the quotient place and subtract 256 from 270, which gives 14.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place to make 140, and then repeat the division process.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>64 goes into 140 two times (64 × 2 = 128). We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 128 from 140, which gives 12.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>64 goes into 140 two times (64 × 2 = 128). We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 128 from 140, which gives 12.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Continue bringing down zeros and dividing until no remainder is left. The division process ends, and we get a terminating decimal.</p>
