<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, 23 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 5. 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><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 23 is<a>greater than</a>5, we can directly divide it.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 23 by 5, which gives 4 as the quotient because 5 × 4 = 20.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 23 by 5, which gives 4 as the quotient because 5 × 4 = 20.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Subtract 20 from 23 to get a remainder of 3.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Subtract 20 from 23 to get a remainder of 3.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down a 0 to the remainder, making it 30, and continue the division process.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down a 0 to the remainder, making it 30, and continue the division process.</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Divide 30 by 5, which gives 6 as the quotient, because 5 × 6 = 30. Since there is no remainder, the division process ends, resulting in a terminating decimal.</p>
