To write a fraction or mixed number as a decimal, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number) using long division.
Step 2: Continue dividing until you reach either a terminating decimal (where the division ends) or a repeating decimal (where the division keeps repeating a pattern).
For example, let's say we have the fraction 3/4. Here's how we would convert it to a decimal:
Step 1: Divide 3 by 4:
0.75
------
4 | 3.00
- 2.8
-----
20
- 20
-----
0
Step 2: The division ends, so the decimal is a terminating decimal. Therefore, 3/4 can be written as the decimal 0.75.
Now, if we have a fraction that results in a repeating decimal, we use bar notation to indicate the repeating pattern. For example, let's convert the fraction 1/3 into a decimal:
Step 1: Divide 1 by 3:
0.3333...
-------
3 | 1.0000
- 0.99
------
10
- 9
------
10
- 9
------
10
- 9
------
10
- 9
------
...
Step 2: The division keeps repeating the pattern of 3s (0.3333...). To indicate this, we use a bar notation. Therefore, 1/3 can be written as the decimal 0.333... or 0.3̅.
Remember to follow these steps for each fraction or mixed number you encounter in your homework workbook to convert them into decimals.
