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 $$$\frac{1800}{25}$$$ into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{7}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\25&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}1&8&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 1
How many $$$25$$$'s are in $$$1$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$1-25 \cdot 0 = 1 - 0= 1$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{25}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{1}& 8 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 2
How many $$$25$$$'s are in $$$18$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$18-25 \cdot 0 = 18 - 0= 18$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{25}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}1&8& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DeepPink}{1}&\color{DeepPink}{8}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 3
How many $$$25$$$'s are in $$$180$$$?
The answer is $$$7$$$.
Write down $$$7$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$180-25 \cdot 7 = 180 - 175= 5$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{BlueViolet}{7}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{25}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}1&8&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{BlueViolet}{1}&\color{BlueViolet}{8}&\color{BlueViolet}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&7&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&5&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 4
How many $$$25$$$'s are in $$$50$$$?
The answer is $$$2$$$.
Write down $$$2$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$50-25 \cdot 2 = 50 - 50= 0$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&7&\color{Chocolate}{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{25}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}1&8&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&7&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{Chocolate}{5}&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&5&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 5
How many $$$25$$$'s are in $$$0$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$0-25 \cdot 0 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&7&2&.&\color{Purple}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{25}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}1&8&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&7&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&5&0&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&5&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{Purple}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{Purple}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Since the remainder is $$$0$$$, then we are done.
Therefore, $$$\frac{1800}{25}=72.0$$$
Answer: $$$\frac{1800}{25}=72.0$$$
