A proper fraction, that is, one with no whole number part, for which the denominator of the fraction is an integral power of ten, may be converted to a decimal of the form:
decimal point followed by one fewer zeros than the power of ten in the denominator, followed by the numerator of the fraction.

How do you create an equivalente representation for a decimal when given the fraction?
To convert a fraction into a decimal divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). When the fraction is as simple as possible (no common factor between the numerator and denominator other than 1) and the denominator has any prime factor other than 2 and 5, the resulting decimal will be recurring.
How do you convert 58 percent to a fraction?
First, we convert 58% to decimal form which is 0.58. Then, we convert 0.58 into fraction which is 58/100. If you want it in the simplest form, find the highest common factor beween 58 and 100 and divide both of them by that factor. In this case, the highest common factor is 2. So, the simplest form of 58/100 would be 29/50.
Is a scale factor shown as a decimal percentage or fraction?
It is usually a fraction, as it is usually shown in a ratio. Decimal and percentages can be used though.
Which fraction equals a repeating decimal?
If the denominator of the fraction in its lowest form, has any factor other than 2 or 5 then it will be a repeating decimal.
What are number fraction can not be expressed as a terminating decimal?
When the fraction is in its simplest or reduced form, if the denominator has any factor other than 1, 2 or 5, it will not be possible to express the fraction as a terminating decimal.
Convert 00475 into a common factor?
I think it's more likely that you want a decimal converted to a fraction. If that's 0.0475, the equivalent fraction is 19/400

What conversion factor fraction is used to convert inches to feet?
The conversion fraction is 1/12.

What can you predict whether a quotient will be a terminating decimal or repeating decimal?
If the denominator of the fraction, when written in its simplest form, has any prime factor other than 2 or 5 then it will be a repeating decimal fraction otherwise it will terminate.
How can you predict whether a quotient will be terminating decimal or a repeating decimal?
If the denominator of the fraction, when written in its simplest form, has any prime factor other than 2 or 5 then it will be a repeating decimal fraction otherwise it will terminate.
When a fraction is changed to a decimal and the remainder is NOT zero a digit or block of digits will eventually start to repeat is a?
It is a fraction whose denominator has a factor other than 2 or 5.
Which fraction can be represented by a repeating decimal?
If the fraction, in its simplest rational form, has a denominator which has any prime factor other than 2 or 5, then proper representation of the fraction requires the use of repeating decimal.
How do you convert numbers into forms?
See the related link about Standard Form. Standard form involves moving the decimal point so that there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point, then multiplying by an appropriate power of ten. If you moved the decimal point to the left, then the exponent of ten will be positive. If you moved the decimal point to the right, then the exponent of ten will be negative. The value of the exponent is equal to the number of places that the decimal is moved.Example:105 = 1.05 x 102 (the decimal was moved 2 places to the left).00356 = 3.56 x 10-3 (the decimal was moved 3 places to the right)
