Question

Mr. Sharma distributed an apple equally among four of his children. What part of the apple did each child get?

• A. 0.50
• B. 0.33
• C. 0.25
• D. 0.10

Answer 1

The correct option is C

0.25

If an apple is divided into four equal parts, each part is $\frac{1}{4}.$

We need to convert the fraction $\frac{1}{4}$ into decimal.

We multiply both the numerator and denominator of $\frac{1}{4}$ by 25 to convert the denominator to a power of 10.

i.e.., $\frac{1\times 25}{4\times 25}=\frac{25}{100}=0.25$
