Fraction to Decimal Formula
The formula for converting a fraction to a decimal is very simple;
This means you simply divide the numerator by the denominator to get the final decimal value. To calculate a fraction to a decimal follow these simple steps;
Step 1:To convert the fraction into decimal you need to divide the numerator by the denominator. Which means divide the top number by the bottom number.
If the numerator is smaller than the denominator, the result will be a decimal less than 1. For example; dividing 1 by 2 gives 0.5. If the division doesn’t result in an exact value you may get a repeating decimal. For example, 1/3 =0.3333…,
In some cases, the decimal may have many digits after the decimal point especially if it's a repeating decimal. Depending on your need you can round the decimal to a specific number of decimal places. For example: 2/7 =0.285714 can be rounded to 0.29.
