Fractions to Decimals
To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator.
Example
$\frac{3}{4}$ = 3 ÷ 4 = 0.75
$\frac{1}{3}$ = 1 ÷ 3 = 0.333… (repeating)
| Fraction | Division | Decimal |
|---|---|---|
| $\frac{1}{2}$ | 1 ÷ 2 | 0.5 |
| $\frac{1}{4}$ | 1 ÷ 4 | 0.25 |
| $\frac{3}{5}$ | 3 ÷ 5 | 0.6 |
| $\frac{2}{3}$ | 2 ÷ 3 | 0.666… |
⚠️ Warning
Some fractions give repeating decimals. If a decimal goes on forever, we use an ellipsis (…) or a bar over the repeating part.
