3/4 = 0.75
'3/4' means three divided by four.
Set up a division bracket
4)3.00000 Notice the string of zeroes after the decimal point.
We say four divided into three won't go. So we write 'zero point' in the answer .
4)3.0000 = 0.
Ignoring the decimal point after the three, we read it as thirty. Then we say 'four into thirty goes seven ( 4 x 7 = 28) with a remainder of '2''.
So the answer becomes
4)3.0000 = 0.7
The remainder '2' is carried onto the second zero , to read twenty. We say 'four into twenty goes five ( 4 x 5 = 20) and no remainder
So the answer becomes
4)3.00000. = 0.75
Since there is no remainder , that is the answer.
To convert a decimal to a fraction we write
0.75 / 1.00 Notice it is over '1' and since there are two decimal digits we place in two 'zeroes'/
Cancel down the decimal points so it read . 75/100
Since both number end in '5' or '0' then cancel down by '5'
75/100 = 15/20
Cancel down by '5' again
15/20 = 3/4 Done !!!!! Hope that helps.
This system is good for any decimal/fraction conversion or vice versa.
However some fractions will give a recurring decimal and recurring decimals can be converted to fractions a different technique.
Only Irrational Numbers ( pi = 3.141592... etc., .) cannot be converted.
6 and 3/4 = 6.75 as a decimal
six and three fourths as a decimal = 6.75
Three fourths = 0.75
two and three fourths written as a decimal is 2.75
Six and three fourths in decimal form is 6.75 exactly.
3 fourths is the same as three quarters.Three quarters as a decimal is 0.75Therefore 4 and three fourths is 4.75 as a decimal.
One and three fourths or 1.75 in decimal.
3.75
negative two and three fourths as a percent is-275% and -2.75 as a decimal
.750.75
0.75
The answer is 0.75.
