<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 19, representing 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 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 5:</strong>Divide 40 by 5, which gives 8 (8 × 5 = 40).</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 40 from 40, leaving no remainder. The division process ends here, giving us a terminating decimal.</p>
