<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, 53, 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 a number that is not whole, using 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>As 53 is smaller than 100, it can't be divided without a decimal. Here we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 53 as 530 and add a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 530, we can divide it by 100. Let's see how many times 100 makes 530.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 530, we can divide it by 100. Let's see how many times 100 makes 530.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>530 divided by 100 is 5 with a remainder of 30.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>530 divided by 100 is 5 with a remainder of 30.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place and make 30 as 300, then repeat the division process.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place and make 30 as 300, then repeat the division process.</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>300 divided by 100 is 3 with no remainder. The division process ends as we get the remainder as 0. This process results in a terminating decimal.</p>
