Fraction to Decimal Calculator

Your input: convert $$$\frac{1400}{18}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}\end{array}&\\18&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}1&4&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$18$$$'s are in $$$1$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$1-18 \cdot 0 = 1 - 0= 1$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{18}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}\color{Chartreuse}{1}& 4 \downarrow&0&0&.&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&4&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$18$$$'s are in $$$14$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$14-18 \cdot 0 = 14 - 0= 14$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&\color{Green}{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{18}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}1&4& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Green}{1}&\color{Green}{4}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&4&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$18$$$'s are in $$$140$$$?

The answer is $$$7$$$.

Write down $$$7$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$140-18 \cdot 7 = 140 - 126= 14$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccc}0&0&\color{Purple}{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{7}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{18}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccc}1&4&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&4&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Purple}{1}&\color{Purple}{4}&\color{Purple}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&2&6&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&1&4&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$18$$$'s are in $$$140$$$?

The answer is $$$7$$$.

Write down $$$7$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$140-18 \cdot 7 = 140 - 126= 14$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 7

How many $$$18$$$'s are in $$$140$$$?

The answer is $$$7$$$.

As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: $$$\frac{1400}{18}=77.7 \overline{7}$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{1400}{18}=77.7\overline{7}$$$
