You put the denominator into the numerator and divide them
example 3/4 4 into 3.00 0 times
4 goes into 30 7 times 7*4=28 R2
4 into 20 5 times 5*4=20
3/4=0.75

If you have a calculator, then simply type in the top number (numerator) and divide it by the bottom number (denominator).
If you don't have a calculator, I'm afraid you have to do some long division, continuing past the decimal point to whatever degree of accuracy as you like. If you would like an example of this then please add another coment to this thread.
Best of luck =)
