Detailed explanation-1: -To find the decimal equivalent of a fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator. Because the number in the numerator is smaller than the number in the denominator, you have to place the decimal point after it and add zeros. Then complete long division.
Detailed explanation-2: -For each fraction, we can find its equivalent fraction by multiplying both numerator and denominator with the same number. For example, we have to find the third equivalent fraction of ⅔; then we have to multiply 2/3 by 3/3. Hence, 2/3 × (3/3) = 6/9, is the fraction equivalent to 2/3.
Detailed explanation-3: -Every fraction can also be written as a decimal, and vice versa. You may not do this very often, but converting decimals and fractions can help you in math. For example, it’s easier to subtract 1/6 from 0.52 if you turn 1/6 into a decimal first.
