A ratio shows the relation between two amounts. For example, let's say you have the ratio 5:10. The ration could represent something like the number of fire trucks in a town compared to the number of ambulances. Anyway, the ration can be written as a fraction because it is a proportion of something. So, it can be written as 5/10. Reduce 5/10, and you get 1/2, which is the decimal .50. In order to determine the decimal of a fraction, divide the numerator (the number above the line in a common fraction) by the denominator (the number below the line in a common fraction).
