#4/9 = 0.44#

Explanation:

The ninths are really interesting fractions and decimals.

To find #4/9#as a decimal, divide: #4div 9 #

#4 div 9 = 0.0.4444444......#

This is an infinite recurring decimal.

To round it to #2# decimal places, look at the third decimal place:

#4/9 = 0.44color(red)(4)44444...#

The value in the third place is less than #5#, therefore the second decimal place does not change.

#4/9 = 0.44color(red)(4)44444... ~~ 0.44#
