CONVERTING DECIMAL TO FRACTION

Converting from Decimals to Fraction

To convert Decimal number to Fraction, write a decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point and in ‘Denominator’.

 Write 1 followed by many zero ‘0’ as per the digit after the decimal point provided in the given number.   

 

1) Find a fraction of 0.25

                            25

Ans)       0.25   =  ----------         

                           100               

 ( In that case, there are two decimal number, therefore 1 followed by two zero ‘0’ in ‘Denominator’ is placed and write decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point)

 

 

2)  Find a fraction of 0.0039

 

                               39

Ans)       0.0039   =  ----------                              

                             10000           

( In that case, there are four decimal number, therefore 1 followed by four zero ‘0’ in ‘Denominator’ is placed and write decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point)

                                                           

 

 

3)  Find a fraction of  3.027

 

                          3027

Ans)     3.027  =  -----------                                  

                          1000           

 ( In that case, there are three decimal number, therefore 1 followed by three zero ‘0’ in  ‘Denominator’ is placed and write decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point)

                                                       

 

4)   Find a fraction of  23.45

 

                         2345

Ans)     23.45  =  -----------                       

                          100           

 ( In that case, there are two decimal number, therefore 1 followed by two zero ‘0’ in ‘Denominator’ is placed and write decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point)

                                                                  

 

5)  Find a fraction of 745.8

                          7458

Ans)     745.8  =  ----------- 

                       10           

( In that case there are one decimal number, therefore 1 followed by one zero ‘0’ in ‘Denominator’ is placed and write decimal number as ‘Numerator’ with no decimal point)
