<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, 7 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 28. 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 7/28 in decimal, we will use the<a>division</a>method. Here, as 7 is smaller than 28, we will use the decimal method, which will give us 0.25. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown<a>of</a>the process:</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (7) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (28) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 7 is smaller than 28, it can't be divided directly; here, we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 7 as 70 and add a decimal point in the quotient place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 7 is smaller than 28, it can't be divided directly; here, we will take the help of decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, which will make 7 as 70 and add a decimal point in the quotient place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 70, we can divide it by 28. Let's see how many times 28 makes 70.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 70, we can divide it by 28. Let's see how many times 28 makes 70.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>70 is not a multiple of 28, so we will look for the nearest number that is 28 × 2 = 56. We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 56 from 70, which gives 14.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>70 is not a multiple of 28, so we will look for the nearest number that is 28 × 2 = 56. We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 56 from 70, which gives 14.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place and make 14 as 140, then repeat the division process. Divide 140 by 28 gives 5, and it gives a remainder of 0. The division process ends here with no remainder, showing it is a terminating decimal.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place and make 14 as 140, then repeat the division process. Divide 140 by 28 gives 5, and it gives a remainder of 0. The division process ends here with no remainder, showing it is a terminating decimal.</p>
