To convert 10 and one-third into a decimal, you need to first understand that the number can be written as a mixed number or as an improper fraction.
To convert it into an improper fraction:
Step 1: Multiply the whole number (10) by the denominator of the fraction (3): 10 * 3 = 30.
Step 2: Add the result from Step 1 to the numerator of the fraction (1): 30 + 1 = 31.
Step 3: Place the sum (31) as the numerator over the denominator (3): 31/3.
Now that we have the improper fraction 31/3, we can convert it to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
31 ÷ 3 = 10.333...
Hence, 10 and one-third is equal to 10.333 (repeating) as a decimal.
