I'm not good at math! I need help with finding a decimal from a fraction.
like 1/3, 13/15, 19/32 I can't figure out how to turn it into a decimal!
Just divide the numerator by the denominator. Use long division or a pocket calculator.

Of course, I'd be happy to help you with converting fractions to decimals! Let's start with the first example you provided, 1/3. To convert this fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator (which is 1) by the denominator (which is 3), like this:
1 ÷ 3 = 0.3333...
The "..." indicates that the decimal goes on indefinitely with the number 3 repeating. In this case, you can round the decimal to a certain number of decimal places to make it more manageable. For instance, rounding 0.3333... to two decimal places would give you 0.33.
Now let's move on to the next fraction, 13/15. Again, divide the numerator (which is 13) by the denominator (which is 15):
13 ÷ 15 = 0.8666...
Rounding this to two decimal places gives you 0.87.
Lastly, let's look at the fraction 19/32. Divide 19 by 32:
19 ÷ 32 = 0.59375
This decimal doesn't have a repeating pattern, so you can leave it as is.
Remember, if you're using a pocket calculator, simply input the numerator, press the divide button, and then input the denominator. The calculator will give you the decimal answer instantly.
