What is 7 over 4 as a decimal?

Answer 1

The answer is 0.57142857143 - you could just write it as 0.57, unless you need to be more specific.

An easy way to convert a fraction into a decimal is through some simple math:

For 4/7 you need to create a fraction that has 4 x 25 on top and 7 x 25 on bottom.

It should look like 4 x 25/7 x 25.

Do that math. 4 x 25 = 100 and 7 x 25 = 175.

Your new fraction should be 100/175.

Then you need to divide 100 by 175. 100 goes into 175 0.57 times, so your answer is 0.57.

Answer 2

7/4 is 1.75.
