Answer : 3. "0.67"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 0.67 Explanation: To convert a fraction into decimal, just take the number on top which we called the numerator and divide it by the number at the bottom which we called the denominator. 2/3 How it comes : 2 ÷ 3 = 0 bring down the decimal point. 20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20 20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20 20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20 etc... This gives the recurring decimal 0.6666... If we round off to two decimals , then it becomes 0.67.   Hence, decimal fraction of 2/3 = 0.67.
