Use fraction to express a number less than one
you use the number you want to express as the fraction as the numerator and the other number is the denominator. an example is, "express 1 as a fraction of 4" you would write it as 1/4
Usually you would put the first number in the ratio into the fraction's numerator (top part), and the second number into the fraction's denominator (bottom part).
812 is an integer and not a fraction. There is no sensible way to express it as a fraction.
the fraction 25/1 or any fraction equal to that, such as 50/2 25 cannot be expressed as a decimal because it is a whole number; to express it as a decimal would basically be 25.0
