There are a number of everyday occurrences in which we
use decimal numbers
...
5 MHz FM; 107

95 is
another example of a decimal number
...
95 is a decimal
fraction, where a decimal point separates the integer, i
...

57, from the fractional part, i

To convert a proper fraction to a decimal fraction, the
numerator is divided by the denominator
...
8 7 5
8 7
...
Place the 0 above the 7
...
000
(iii) 8 into 70 goes 8, remainder 6
...

(iv) 8 into 60 goes 7, remainder 4
...

(v) 8 into 40 goes 5, remainder 0
...

7
Hence, the proper fraction = 0
...

Problem 4
...
Place the 5 above
the next zero

18 Basic Engineering Mathematics
For example,
3

3
= 3
...
For
example,
5
1 = 1
...
is a non-terminating decimal
7

Note that the zeros to the right of the decimal point do
not count as significant figures
...
Express 14
...


The answer to a non-terminating decimal may be
expressed in two ways, depending on the accuracy
required:

2
...
7846 correct to 4 significant figures
...
Express 43
...


correct to a number of significant figures, or

(b) correct to a number of decimal places i
...
the
number of figures after the decimal point
...

For example,

3
...
3792 correct to 2 decimal places
...
Express 1
...

6
...
0005279 correct to 3 significant
figures
...
714285
...
714 correct to 4 significant figures
= 1
...

The last digit in the answer is increased by 1 if the next
digit on the right is in the group of numbers 5, 6, 7, 8 or
9
...
7142857
...
7143 correct to 5 significant figures
= 1
...

Problem 5
...
36815 correct to
(a) 2 decimal places, (b) 3 significant figures,
(c) 3 decimal places, (d) 6 significant figures
(a)

15
...
37 correct to 2 decimal places
...
36815 = 15
...

(c)

15
...
368 correct to 3 decimal places
...
36815 = 15
...

Problem 6
...
004369 correct to
(a) 4 decimal places, (b) 3 significant figures
(a)

0
...
0044 correct to 4 decimal places
...
004369 = 0
...


3
...
This is demonstrated in the
following worked examples
...
Evaluate 46
...
06 + 2
...
09
and give the answer correct to 3 significant figures
The decimal points are placed under each other as
shown
...

46
...
06
2
...
09
52
...
Place 5 in the hundredths column
...

(ii) 8 + 0 + 4 + 0 + 1 (carried) = 13
...
Carry the 1 into the units
column
...
Place the 2 in
the units column
...


Decimals
(iv) 4 + 1(carried) = 5
...

Hence,
46
...
06 + 2
...
09 = 52
...
4, correct to 3
significant figures

(i) 6 − 7 is not possible; therefore ‘borrow’ 1 from
the tenths column
...
Place

This gives 13 − 7 = 6
...

(iii) 3 − 8 is not possible; therefore ‘borrow’ from the
hundreds column

(x) 8 × 12 = 96; place the 96 below the 105
...


(i) 376 × 54 = 20304
...


(ii) As there are 1 + 1 = 2 digits to the right of
the decimal points of the two numbers being
multiplied together, 37

(xiii) 12 into 90 goes 7; place the 7 above the first
zero of 442

(a) 3 significant figures, (b) 2 decimal places
44
