You use long division.
The only other way is to have a machine do the long division for you.
A calculator is faster.
You divide the numerator of the fraction by its denominator - using long division (aka the bus-stop method) if required.
To express any fraction as a decimal, use long division to divide the numerator by the denominator.

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.
To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator by the denominator - on a calculator, or using long division.
Multiply the numerator of the fraction by 100 and then divide (using long division if needed or a calculator) by the denominator.

The line in a fraction can be read as "divided by." To convert a fraction to a decimal, do the division. 3/4 = 3 divided by 4 = 0.75 To convert a decimal to a fraction, say it out loud. 0.59 = fifty-nine hundredths = 59/100
