use your calculator...

anonymous · Answer

Jeremy got 152 out of the 600 votes.  So his fraction is:$$\frac{152}{600}$$To get the decimal, you have to divide them, which might need a calculator, or just patience if you are going to do it by hand.  the decimal for this one is:
$$.25\bar{3}$$all your decimals should be less than one.
