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
If you are given a sum with a remainder, for example, 17 / 5 = 3 remainder 2, then you can convert the number to a mixed number by putting the remainder as the numerator of the fraction, and the divisor as the denominator of the fraction. At this point, the fractional part of the sum can easily be turned into a decimal by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator - therefore, 17 / 5 = 3 2/5 or 3.4.

a repeating decimal
Convert the fraction to a decimal and then multiply by 100.
The decimal for the fraction 200 over 3 is 66.666666... (repeating). To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the numerator (200) by the denominator (3). The division results in a quotient of 66 with a remainder of 2. Since the remainder is less than the divisor, you add a decimal point and zeros after the decimal to continue the division process, resulting in an infinite repeating decimal of 66.666666...
