to change a fraction to a decimal you have to have a multiple of 10 like 10, 100, 1000, and so on. you can also have ones like 2, 5, 20, 50, and so on. so lets say we have 4/10 to change it to a decimal, you have to look at the bottom number in this case it is 10 and already a multiple of 10. when you have a decimal, it goes directly to tenths there aren't any types of ones. so a decimal of this problem would be 0.4 same with hundredths except it is one more spot to the right. but if you have a fraction like this, 6/100 you have to put a zero in front of the 6 to put it in the hundredths spot. now lets say i have 3/5 and i want to change it to a decimal. it is the same thing but this time i have to change the 5 to a 10 and to do that you have to multiply top and bottom by 2 so that would be 6/10 which as a decimal would be 0.6

hope that answers your question
