To change a fraction to a decimal, you can use division. Here's how you can do it step by step:
1. Divide the numerator (the top number) of the fraction by the denominator (the bottom number). For example, let's say we have the fraction 3/4. You would divide 3 by 4.
2. Perform the division, either manually or using a calculator. In the case of 3 divided by 4, the result is 0.75.
3. The quotient you get from the division is the decimal representation of the fraction. So, 3/4 as a decimal is 0.75.
Therefore, to change any fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator by the denominator. Remember that if the denominator does not divide evenly into the numerator, you might get a decimal with repeating digits.
