how do you turn a fraction in to a decimal??
Divide the numerator by the denominator.
Examples:
1/2 = 0.5
3/4 = 0.75
4/5 = ??
7/10 = ??
Lets take an example. 4/5
if you mark 4 is less than 5. So when we start to convert, if thenumerator is smaller thanthe denominator, the fraction starts. I mean we start with 0.(period)
Then we add a "0" to the numerator. So in our case, it will be now 40. Now devide 40 by 5 which is 8. So our result will be 0.8 (0. was added as 4 was smaller than 5)
To turn a fraction into a decimal, you can follow these steps:
1. Divide the numerator (the top number of the fraction) by the denominator (the bottom number of the fraction). For example, if you have the fraction 3/4, you would divide 3 by 4.
2. Perform the division to get the quotient. For example, 3 divided by 4 is 0.75.
3. Write the quotient as a decimal. In this case, the fraction 3/4 would be written as the decimal 0.75.
So, by dividing the numerator by the denominator, you can convert a fraction into a decimal.
