Divide the top number by the bottom number. Example: 1/4 = 1 divided by 4 = 0.25
Vocabulary used in the answer:
- Numerator - The number above the line in a fraction.
- Denominator - The number below the line in a fraction.
- Quotient - The answer to a division problem.
Another way to do it, is that if the denominator is a factor of 100 then this method will be easier. First, you do 100 divided by the denominator. Then, you multiply the numerator by the quotient. Then put a decimal point in front of all the numbers. That would also give you a decimal.
Example:
1/5 = .20
100 divided by 5 equals 20
20 x 1 = 20
20 --> .20
The / sign in the fraction is actually the same as a divide sign. Divide the numerator (top) by the denominator (bottom) and you will end up with your decimal.
Example:
2/4 = 2 divided by 4 = 0.5
3/2 = 3 divided by 2 = 1.5
