The line in a fraction can be read as "divided by."
3/4 = 3 divided by 4
Since 4 is going into 3, 3 goes on the inside.
The answer depends on the form of the fraction. If it is a decimal fraction, you need to nothing to convert it to a decimal! (?). If it is in the form of a rational fraction, you need to use long division to divide the numerator by the denominator. The division will either come to an end or will go into a repeating loop of digits. The quotient from the division is the decimal equivalent. To convert to a percentage, simply move the decimal point two places to the right - inserting os if required.
divide the denominator by the numerator
To change a fraction to a decimal, divide its numerator by its denominator using long division. To change that into a percent, move the decimal place two places to the left.For example,if you have 3/8, long division gives 0.375 and the percentage is 37.5%
To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator by the denominator - on a calculator, or using long division.
Division.
Divide the numerator by the denominator.
You need to divide the numerator by the denominator and you will find your answer.
Simply take the fraction, and do the long division (numerator) divided by (denominator).The quotient is the decimal way to write the fraction.
To express any fraction as a decimal, use long division to divide the numerator by the denominator.
To change a fraction to a decimal: Perform the indicated division. To change a fraction to a percent: Perform the indicated division. Then multiply the quotient by 100.
You divide the numerator by the denominator. It may need to be a long division.
Perform the division of (numerator) divided by (denominator).
