Fraction 2/5 to decimal = 2 ÷ 5

2 ÷ 5 = 5 2

5 2 = 0. (Does not divide, write 0. and multiply 2 by 10)

5 20 =4 remainder 0    (We multiply 0 by 10 to get 0 for the next calculation)


5 0 =0 remainder 0     (we stop because remainder is 0)

5 2 = 0.40

5 2 as a decimal in full digit = 0.4.

Adding fractions

how to add fractions

2/5 + 2/6

First multiply denominators to get common denominator

5 X 6 =30

Divide common denominator by each fraction denominator and multiply it to get numerator.

12+10 = 22

So
2/5 + 2/6 = 22/30

Subtracting fractions

how to substract fractions

2/5 - 2/6

First multiply denominators to get common denominator

5 X 6 =30

Divide common denominator by each fraction denominator and multiply it to get numerator.

12-10 = 2

So
2/5 - 2/6 = 2/30

Multiplying fractions

how to multiply fractions

2/5 x 2/6

First multiply denominators together

5 X 6 =30

Multiply numerators together.

2x2 = 4

So
2/5 x 2/6 = 4/30

Dividing fractions

how to divide fractions

2/5 ÷ 2/6

First Inverting the second fraction, which gives

2/5 ÷ 6/2

then multiply denominators together

5 X 2 =10

Multiply numerators.

2 X 6 =12

So
2/5 ÷ 2/6 = 12/10


12/10 as a decimal = 0.4

12/10 as a percentage = 120


0.4 = 4 to the nearest tenth

0.4 = 0.4 to the nearest hundredth

0.4 = 0.4 to the nearest thousandth

Addition: Addtion operations are carried out by adding two fractions together, eg a/b + C/d

Division: Division operations are performed by dividing one fraction by another, eg a/b ÷ c/d

Multiplication: Multiplication operation is performed by multiply two fractional values, eg a/b X c/d

Subtraction: Subtraction is performed by subtracting one fraction from another. eg a/c - i/j

Numerator / Denominator

Numerator: We call the top number the Numerator, it is the number at the top of the fraction you have.

Denominator: We call the bottom number the Denominator, it is the whole number that is at the bottom, it is the number that is divided into.

Fraction to decimal conversion steps

Step 1: Find a number you can multiply by the bottom of the fraction to make it 10, or 100, or 1000, or any 1 followed by 0s.

Step 2: Multiply both the top and bottom by that number you choose.

Step 3. Then write down just the top number, putting the decimal point in the correct spot, that is one space from the right hand side for every zero in the bottom number.

This fraction calculator can also be used as fraction to percent, shopping discounts, coupon off, body fat, gross profit, weight loss, love, tax, population increase & decrease, sales profit. Once you know the values, to determine the % is easy .
