<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, 29 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 8. 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 those to the right represent the fractional part.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (29) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (8) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

10
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 29 by 8. See how many times 8 fits into 29.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 29 by 8. See how many times 8 fits into 29.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>8 goes into 29 three times (3 × 8 = 24). Write 3 in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>8 goes into 29 three times (3 × 8 = 24). Write 3 in the<a>quotient</a>place.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Subtract 24 from 29, which gives 5.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Subtract 24 from 29, which gives 5.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down a 0, making it 50, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 50 six times (6 × 8 = 48).</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down a 0, making it 50, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 50 six times (6 × 8 = 48).</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 48 from 50, which gives 2. Bring down another 0, making it 20, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 20 two times (2 × 8 = 16).</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 48 from 50, which gives 2. Bring down another 0, making it 20, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 20 two times (2 × 8 = 16).</p>
15
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Subtract 16 from 20, which gives 4. Bring down another 0, making it 40, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 40 five times (5 × 8 = 40).</p>
15
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Subtract 16 from 20, which gives 4. Bring down another 0, making it 40, and divide by 8. 8 goes into 40 five times (5 × 8 = 40).</p>
16
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 40 from 40, which gives 0. The division process ends here.</p>
16
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 40 from 40, which gives 0. The division process ends here.</p>
