Using long division, divide the numerator by the denominator.
The easiest way to deal with division by a fraction is to invert the fraction and then multiply. Let the unknown fraction be represented by a. Then, a ÷ 1/20 = a x 20 = 10 So, a = 10/20 = 1/2.
Multiply the numerator of the fraction by 100 and then divide (using long division if needed or a calculator) by the denominator.
There is no point A and so nothing is represented.
