step 6 Simplify the above expression further:
= 2 + (400/15 x 1/100)
= 2 + (390 + 10/15 x 1/100)
= 2 + [(390/15 + 10/15 ) x 1/100]
= 2 + [(26 + 10/15) x 1/100]
step 7 Repeat the step 5 to find the decimal equivalent for the fraction 10/15 in the above expression:
= 2 + [(26 + 10/15) x 1/100]
= 2 + [(26 + 0.67) x 1/100]
= 2 + (26.67 x 1/100)
= 2 + 26.67/100
= 2 + 0.2667
