If it's long division then it is because the quotient will become a decimal number after its decimal point

How can you convert a remainder into a fraction or decimal?
To turn a remainder into a fraction you just put the remainder over the dividend. To turn a remainder into a decimal put a decimal in the divisor and in the answer so far, put a zero, bring the zero down and divide what you now have. If that does not come out evenly add another zero in the dividend and do that until it come out evenly
Where do you put the dividend in a division problem?
The dividend is the first number in a dividing equation.Dividend ÷ Divisor = Quotient; the Remainder is any 'left over' value, if not evenly divisible.For example,54 divided by 9= 6.54 is the dividend, 9 is the Divisor, 6 is the Quotient, and the Remainder is 0.
When remainder is zero the improper fraction is?
When the remainder is zero the answer is a whole number. Put that number over 1 for an improper fraction.
How do you convert a remainder of a division to a fraction?
Put the remainder on top of the divisor and that is the fraction. Remember that a number which divides the other number is known as the divisor. So if we have 4 divided by 2, then 2 is the divisor and 4 is the dividend.
How do you change a remainder in to a decimal?
Instead of leaving it as a remainder add an extra zero and carry over the remainder to the zero and do this until you have no more numbers to carry over. For example: 18 / 4 = 4 remainder 2 Put a point zero after the 18.0, then write a little 2 before the 0 4)18.20 20 divided by 4 = 5 so your answer is 4.5
What is 4 over 9 in decimals?
Use long division: dividend = 4.000... divisor = 9 quotient = answer (a) 9 won't go into 4 (it goes in 0 times, remainder 4) (b) put 0 in the quotient, to left of decimal point (c) Pull down a zero (from dividend), appending it to 4 to make 40. (d) 9 goes into 40 ? Yes, 4 times, remainder 4. (e) Put a 4 to right of previous digit of quotient (f) GOTO (c) The algorithm is an infinite loop, generating a periodic decimal: 0.444... This is the answer.
How do you divide with remainders?
You divide when there is a remainder the same as you divide when there is none. The only difference is that when you divide the last digit in the dividend, you will wither add a decimal point and 0 to the right of the digit and keep dividing, designate the leftover number as a remainder, or you will put the remainder over the divisor to show the remainder as a fraction. For example: 761 divided by 10 is 76 with a remainder of 1. You can write 76 R1, 76 1/10 or 76.1
What do you do with a remainder if you are dividing decimals?
you put that number as your remainder
How do you make up your own division problem?
Get two numbers and put a division sign in between them.
Can you put a remainder in algebra?
Yes
How do you write improper fractions as a mixed number or a whole number?
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part. If the remainder is zero, it's just a whole number.
