Frequently Asked Questions
How do you convert a decimal to a fraction?
Write the decimal as a fraction with 1 as the denominator (e.g., 0.75 = 0.75/1). Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point (0.75 × 100 / 1 × 100 = 75/100). Then simplify by dividing by the greatest common divisor (75/100 ÷ 25/25 = 3/4).
How do you convert a repeating decimal to a fraction?
For repeating decimals like 0.333..., set x = 0.333... Multiply both sides by 10 (10x = 3.333...), subtract x (10x - x = 3.333... - 0.333... = 3), so 9x = 3, thus x = 3/9 = 1/3.
What is 0.5 as a fraction?
0.5 as a fraction is 1/2. Since 0.5 = 5/10, and the GCD of 5 and 10 is 5, dividing both by 5 gives 1/2.
