In a neighborhood of 72 families. 18 families on one or more cats. Write the number of families who own one or more cat as a fraction. Then write the fraction as a decimal.
The fraction is 18/72. The decimal is different. If you divide 72 by 18, you get 4. That tells you how it is in a quarter, aka four pieces. Divide 100 by 4, you get 25. That’s why the answer is 0.25
