Answer 1

To convert the fraction \( \frac{17}{50} \) into a decimal, you can perform the division of 17 by 50.

Doing the division gives:

\( 17 \div 50 = 0.34 \)

So, the decimal representation of \( \frac{17}{50} \) is \( 0.34 \).

Since there are no repeating parts in this decimal, you can write it as follows:

0. 34

There are no repeating digits, so there isn't a non-repeating or repeating part to indicate. The answer is simply \( 0.34 \).
