A fraction is written in terms of two parts: the number on top is called the numerator and the number on the bottom is called the denominator. We can use the division method to solve this question. To get a decimal, simply divide the numerator 41 by the denominator 40:
41 (numerator) ÷ 40 (denominator) = 1.02
As a result, you get 1.02 as your answer when you convert 41/40 to a decimal.
