What is an equivalent decimal to three fourths?

Answer 1

3/4 (fraction) = 0.75 (decimal)

How do we do it .

3/4 means three divided by '4'

Set up division bracket

4 ) 3.00000 (Notice string decimal zeroes)

We say 'Four into three won't go ; so zero in the answer followed by decimal point

Hence

4)3.000 = 0. Ignoring the decimal point after the '3' , we read it as '30'.

So four in to thirty goes seven times ( 4 x 7 = 28) , remainder 2'

So answer becomes

4)3.0000. = 0.7

The remainder '2' is attached to the second zero to read '20'.

Again we say four into twenty goes exactly five times ( 4 x 5 = 20) and no remainder.

So the answer becomes

4)3.00 = 0.75 Since there is no remainder, that is the answer!!!!!

Answer 2

Three fourths = three divided by four = 0.75
