divide the numerator by the denominator, and round to the nearest tenth or hundredth, whatever is best. Ex. 1 1/2 = 1.5 since 1 divided by 2 is .5, make the new number 1.5. if the number is 1 1/3, then the decimal would be 1.33333..... so then you would round it to the nearest tenth (1.3) or the nearest hundredth (1.33) and then put a repeating bar over the decimal.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
