When you turn a fraction into a decimal you are just dividing the top number by the bottom number. Therefore 5/12 is the same as 5 divided by 12. Divide it and you'll have your decimal.

to transform fractions to decimals, all you ought to do is divide the precise form by ability of the backside form. as an occasion, 14/25 converted to a decimal could be 14 divided by ability of 25 = 0.fifty six. this is effortless! purely plug it in to a calculator and write out the equation for each question (as above). to transform decimals to fractions, purely multiply the form by ability of one hundred, (as an occasion, 0.75x100 = 75), the fraction is then that form over one hundred (0.75 = one hundred, 75/one hundred) as a fragment. Then make the fraction the smallest it could probable replace into (as an occasion, 75/one hundred will become 3/4).
