<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 89 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole; here, it is 100. 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 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 2:</strong>Since 89 is less than 100, we know the result will be less than 1. So we directly use division, giving us 0.89.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>100 goes into 89 zero times, so we write 0 as the whole number part.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>100 goes into 89 zero times, so we write 0 as the whole number part.</p>
13
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>We add a decimal point and continue the division process by considering 89 as 890 (adding a zero after the decimal).</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>100 goes into 890 eight times (8 x 100 = 800), leaving a remainder of 90.</p>
