Detailed Solution

We are given a fraction as 9 16  , and its decimal form as 0.5625.
We use the method of long division and divide 9 by 16 as follows,
16 0.5625 90 80 ¯ 100 96 ¯ 40 32 ¯ 80 80 ¯ 0  
So, it can be observed that the quotient obtained after division is 0.5625, which is the same as mentioned in the statement.
