How do you change a fraction into a decimal? e.g 1/3=_.___

Method 1 : Use
the base 10, 100, 1000 system to find the decimal.Make sure you mark 0.3with a repeating 3.

Methond 2: Divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator (e.g.4/9
= 4 · 9=0.44444) Round the answer to the desired precision.

Method 3: 3/8
you would find by what factor you multiply 8 to get a multiple of 10, and then use the same
factor to multiply 3.

Thus 8*125 = 1000and 3*125 = 375so we get 375/1000 =
0.375. So1 divide by 3 will give you 0.3 with a repeating 3.round it off and the answer is
0.3
