<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, 23 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 9. 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 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 23 by 9. The whole number result is 2 since 9 × 2 = 18.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Subtract 18 from 23 to get a remainder of 5.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Bring down a 0 to make it 50 and continue the division.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Divide 50 by 9, which goes 5 times (9 × 5 = 45). Subtract 45 from 50 to get a remainder of 5.</p>
