Convert 3/4 to decimal.

Dividing the top number by the bottom converts a fraction to a decimal. For three-fourths, divide 3 by 4. 4 goes into 3 zero times, then into 30 seven times (28), leaving 2; bring down a 0 to make 20, and 4 goes into 20 five times (20) with no remainder. The result is 0.75. Another handy check is to multiply top and bottom by 25 to get 75/100, which is 0.75. The other options represent different fractions: 0.25 is 1/4, 0.50 is 1/2, and 0.95 is 19/20, not 3/4.
