<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, 28, which represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 80. 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 fractional 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 3:</strong>Divide 7 by 20. As 7 is smaller than 20, we will add a decimal point. We will add 0 to the dividend, making it 70.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Now, divide 70 by 20. 20 goes into 70 three times (20 × 3 = 60).</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 60 from 70, which gives 10. Bring down another 0, making it 100.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 60 from 70, which gives 10. Bring down another 0, making it 100.</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>20 goes into 100 five times (20 × 5 = 100). This makes the division exact with no remainder.</p>
