<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, 117 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 200. A decimal is a way to represent the 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>To get 117/200 in decimal, we will use the<a>division</a>method. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (117) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (200) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (117) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (200) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 117 is smaller than 200, it can't be divided directly; here we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make it 1170 and add a decimal point in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 1170, we can divide it by 200. Let's see how many times 200 fits into 1170.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 1170, we can divide it by 200. Let's see how many times 200 fits into 1170.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>200 × 5 = 1000, which is less than 1170, so we will write 5 in the quotient place and subtract 1000 from 1170 to get 170.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>200 × 5 = 1000, which is less than 1170, so we will write 5 in the quotient place and subtract 1000 from 1170 to get 170.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 to make it 1700, and then continue the division process.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>200 × 8 = 1600, so we write 8 in the quotient place and subtract 1600 from 1700 to get 100.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>200 × 8 = 1600, so we write 8 in the quotient place and subtract 1600 from 1700 to get 100.</p>
