Answer 5

for me

Answer 6

It kind of depends on the fraction, also. If you can get the den'r to a power of 10, then you can easily convert to a decimal.

E.g.: convert 4/5 to decimal.

\[\Large \dfrac{ 4 }{ 5 }=\dfrac{ 4 }{ 5 }\cdot \dfrac{ 2 }{ 2 }=\dfrac{ 8 }{ 10 }=0.8\]

Answer 7

thankyou is that how I write he problem and thankyou again

Answer 8

Well, if the fraction you are to convert is 4/5, yeah, that's how I'd write it... lol.

Like I said, that only works if the den'r is a factor of a power of 10. It won't work with every fraction. Like @phanta_seea said, sometimes you may need to do long division. That will always work.
