To convert the integer 415 to a decimal, you will divide it by 100, which essentially shifts the decimal point two places to the left.

Here's how you would use long division to convert 415 into a decimal:

  1. Divisor and Dividend:

    • Dividend (number being divided): 415
    • Divisor (number to divide by): 100
  2. Long division setup: The setup would look like:

      ________
    100 | 415.00
    
  3. Divide:

    • 100 goes into 415 four times (4).
    • 4 * 100 = 400.
  4. Subtract:

    • Subtract 400 from 415:
         415
       - 400
       ------
          15
    
  5. Bring down:

    • Bring down a zero (since we're converting to decimal):
         150
    
  6. Divide:

    • 100 goes into 150 one time (1).
    • 1 * 100 = 100.
  7. Subtract:

    • Subtract 100 from 150:
         150
       - 100
       ------
          50
    
  8. Bring down:

    • Bring down another zero:
         500
    
  9. Divide:

    • 100 goes into 500 five times (5).
    • 5 * 100 = 500.
  10. Subtract:

  • Subtract 500 from 500:
     500
   - 500
   ------
       0

The long division shows that \( 415 \div 100 = 4.15 \).

So, the correct conversion of 415 to decimal is 4.15.
