write 9\\frac{71}{100} as a decimal number.

Explanation:

Step1: Split the mixed number

A mixed number (a\frac{b}{c}) can be written as (a+\frac{b}{c}). So (9\frac{71}{100}=9 + \frac{71}{100}).

Step2: Convert the fraction to decimal

Since (\frac{71}{100}=71\div100 = 0.71) (dividing by 100 moves the decimal point two places to the left).

Step3: Add the whole - number part and the decimal part

(9+0.71=9.71)

Answer:

(9.71)
