<p>It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part of a whole. It has two parts: the numerator (number on the top), here 2, represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 3. 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 that to the right represents the fractional part.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Convert the<a>fraction</a>2/3 into a decimal. The<a>numerator</a>(2) will be the<a>dividend</a>, and the denominator (3) will be the divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>As 2 is smaller than 3, it can't be divided, so we'll use decimals. We add 0 to the dividend, making it 20, and place a decimal point in the quotient.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Divide 20 by 3. 3 goes into 20 six times (3 × 6 = 18). Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 20, and repeat the division process. The division process continues, and we do not get the remainder as 0. This process is called a recurring decimal.</p>
