Conversion of
Fraction and
Decimal
Changing Fractions to Decimals
Fraction
Fraction is consist of two number: a
numerator(top number) and denominator
(bottom number) in which a numerator is
divided by a denominator.
Changing Fractions to Decimals
Decimals
It is a number that consist of a whole
number and a fractional part that contains a
decimal point.
Changing Fractions to Decimals

Any rational number can be changed


from fractional form to decimal form. This is
done by simply dividing the numerator by
the denominator.
For example;
C. 1
A. 4 B. 3 8
4 0.125
5 8(1.000
0.75 = 8
0.8 4(3.00
5(4.0 = 28 20
= 40 16
0 20 40
20 40
Repeating Digit For example;
A. 1 B. 5
3 6
0.333… 0.8333…
3(1.000 6(5.000
= 9 = 48

10 20
9 18

9 18
Rounding Off Decimals

Metric measurements in decimals are


often long numbers. They must often be
rounded to a convenient number of digits.
Rules in Rounding Off Decimals
1. If the first number to be eliminated is
less than 5, simply drop it (and the
number to the right of it) and let the last
significant digit stand.
Example:
A. Round off 25.4 mm to whole
millimeter.
Solution: Simply drop the .4
Answer: 25
Example:
B. Round off 0.3125 (5/16) into two
significant digits.
Solution: The first number to be
eliminated is 2: Simply drop it and all
numbers to its right(5)
Answer:0.31
2. If the number to be eliminated is 5 or
more, drop the number, then add one to
the last digit retained.
Example:
A. Round off 78.6 into its nearest ones.
Solution: The number to be rounded off is 6
which is greater than 5,
drop 6 and add one to the last digit
retained.
Answer: 79
Example:
B. Round off 92.65 into its nearest tenths.
Solution: The number to be rounded off
is 5, drop 5 and add one to 6 which is the
last digit retained.
Answer: 92.7
Changing Decimal to Fractions

A decimal is changed to a fraction by


using 10 or any power of 10 as denominator
of the given decimal. Then change to lowest
term when possible.
Example:
A. 0.4 = 4 or 2
10 5

B. 0.25 = 25 or 1
100 4

C. 0.328 = 328 or 82 or 41
1000 250 125
