How do you write a fraction into a decimal?

Answer 1

To make a fraction into a decimal you are going to divide the denominator into the numerator. Use long division. See the example below.

1/2

2 goes into 1 0 times. so you get 0.

then you carry the 1 down and it becomes 1.0 and 2 goes into 1.0 five times. so then you get .5. Use the rules for long division including decimals.

Answer 2

you take the numerators and put a decimal point behind it.
