Which decimal is equivalent to 8 9/12 A. 8.12 B. 8.9 C. 8.34 D. 8.75

OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):

D.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Do you know how to convert a mixed number into an improper fraction?

OpenStudy (liv1234):

You can't give direct answers.

OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):

The answer is D because 7/9 simplifies down to .75

OpenStudy (liv1234):

And no, you're incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):

Then of course, there is the flat 8.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Okay, so 8 9/12 is equal to 105/12

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Basically you take your 105/12 and you will get a decimal, tell me what you get when you do that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (liv1234):

What did you get?

OpenStudy (liv1234):

The answer would be D. 8.75, but I didn't wanna give it to you right away because I wanted you to understand why that is the answer.
