Decimal Equivalent for Fractions


Decimals are a kind of fractional number. The decimal 0.6 signifies the fraction 6/10. The decimal 0.75 signifies the fraction 5/100. Decimal fractions forever have a denominator based on a exponent of 10.We know that 5/15 is equal to 1/3 since 1/5 times 5/5 is 5/15.In this article we shall discuss the table of decimal equivalent for fractions.
Table of Decimal Equivalents for Fractions:

Example problems- table of decimal equivalents for fractions:

Example problem1:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.5

Solution:

Here to convert 0.5 into fraction, multiply and divide by 10,

=   0.5*10*`1/10`

=   5*`1/10`

= `5/10`

= `1/2`

Equivalent fraction is `1/2.`

Example problem2: table of decimal equivalents for fractions:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.75

Solution:

Here to convert 0.5 into fraction, multiply and divide by 100,

=   0.75*100*`1/100`

=   75*`1/100`

= `75/100`

= `15/20` =` 3/4`

Equivalent fraction is `3/4` .



Example problem 3: table of decimal equivalents for fractions:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.25

Solution:

Here to convert 0.25 into fraction, multiply and divide by 100,

=   0.25*100*`1/100`

=   25*`1/100`

= `25/100`

= `1/4`

Equivalent fraction is `1/4` .

Example problem 4: table of decimal equivalents for fractions:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.35

Solution:

Here to convert 0.35 into fraction, multiply and divide by 100,

=   0.35*100*`1/100`

=   35*`1/100`

= `35/100`

= `7/20`

Equivalent fraction is `7/20` .

Example problem 5: table of decimal equivalents for fractions:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.45

Solution:

Here to convert 0.45 into fraction, multiply and divide by 100,

=   0.45*100*`1/100`

=   45*`1/100`

= `45/100`

= `9/20`

Equivalent fraction is `9/20` .

Example problem 6:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.55

Solution:

Here to convert 0.55 into fraction, multiply and divide by 100,

=   0.55*100*`1/100`

=   55*`1/100`

= `55/100`

= `11/20`

Equivalent fraction is `11/20` .

Example problem 7:

Convert the decimal value into fraction, 0.3

Solution:

Here to convert 0.3 into fraction, multiply and divide by 10,

=   0.3*10*`1/10`

=   3*`1/10`

= `3/10`

Equivalent fraction is `3/10` .

The following table will explain you the decimal equivalent for the given fraction
