CONVERSION FROM FRACTION TO DECIMAL

CONVERSION OF FRACTION INTO DECIMAL

                      52

Example.1)     ----------  = ?

                      10

Step.1) In the given fraction, we can see in the ‘Denominator’ there are one ‘0’ Zero.       

52 can be written as 52.00 or 52.0 

So, 52 = 52.0 = 52.00 = 52.000  is same value

Step.2) So, decimal point can move from left towards right of the ‘Numerator’ of the given Fraction. The number of step movement of Decimal point should be according to the number of ‘0’ Zero after 1 in Denominator of the given fraction is provided.


                      23

Example.2)     ----------  = ?

                     1000

Step.1) In the given fraction, we can see in the ‘Denominator’ there are one ‘0’ Zero. 23 can be written as 23.00 or 23.0 

So,  23 = 23.0 = 23.00 = 23.000  is same value.

Step.2) So, the decimal point can move from left towards right of the ‘Numerator’ of the given Fraction. The step movement of the Decimal point should be according to the number of ‘0’ Zero after 1 in Denominator of the given fraction is provided. There are 3 Zero after 1 in the ‘Denominator’ of the given fraction is provided. So the decimal point should move three steps from left to the right of the ‘Numerator’.   

0023 = 023 = 23 value of the given series are the same because value of Zero before digit is ‘NULL’



                     8.6

Example.3)     ----------  = ?

                    10000

Step.1) In the given fraction, we can see in the ‘Denominator’ there are one ‘0’ Zero. 

8.6 can be written as 8.60 or 8.600

So, 8.6 = 8.60 = 8.600 = 8.6000  are same value, 08.6 = 008.6 = 0008.6 = 00008.6 are same value

Step.2) So, decimal point can move from left towards right of the ‘Numerator’ of the given Fraction. The step movement of the Decimal point should be according to the number of ‘0’ Zero after 1 in Denominator of the given fraction is providedThere are 4 Zero after 1 in the ‘Denominator’ of the given fraction is provided. So the decimal point should move four steps from left to the right of the ‘Numerator’.
