<p>It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of a whole. It has two components: the numerator (number on the top), here 24, which indicates how many parts out of the whole are considered. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 7. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a decimal point (.) 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>
