Fraction to Decimal Calculator
Convert fractions to decimals step by step
The calculator will convert the given fraction (proper or improper) or mixed number into a decimal (possibly, repeating or recurring), with steps shown.
Solution
Your input: convert $$$\frac{600}{11}$$$ into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccc}\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\11&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccc}6&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 1
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$6$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$6-11 \cdot 0 = 6 - 0= 6$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{11}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{6}& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 2
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$60$$$?
The answer is $$$5$$$.
Write down $$$5$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$60-11 \cdot 5 = 60 - 55= 5$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&\color{DeepPink}{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{11}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}6&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DeepPink}{6}&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&5&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 3
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$50$$$?
The answer is $$$4$$$.
Write down $$$4$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$50-11 \cdot 4 = 50 - 44= 6$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&5&\color{BlueViolet}{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{11}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}6&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{BlueViolet}{5}&\color{BlueViolet}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&6&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 4
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$60$$$?
The answer is $$$5$$$.
Write down $$$5$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$60-11 \cdot 5 = 60 - 55= 5$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 6
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$60$$$?

Step 7
How many $$$11$$$'s are in $$$50$$$?
The answer is $$$4$$$.
Write down $$$4$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$50-11 \cdot 4 = 50 - 44= 6$$$.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&5&4&.&5&4&5&\color{Blue}{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{11}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}6&0&0&.&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&5&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&6&\phantom{.}&0\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&5&\phantom{.}&5\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&5&0\\&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&6&0\\&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&5&5\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&\color{Blue}{5}&\color{Blue}{0}\\&&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&6\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: $$$\frac{600}{11}=54. \overline{54}$$$
Answer: $$$\frac{600}{11}=54.\overline{54}$$$
