Fraction to Decimal Calculator

Your input: convert $$$\frac{900}{27}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccc}\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}\end{array}&\\27&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccc}9&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$27$$$'s are in $$$9$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$9-27 \cdot 0 = 9 - 0= 9$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{Chartreuse}{9}& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}9&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$27$$$'s are in $$$90$$$?

The answer is $$$3$$$.

Write down $$$3$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$90-27 \cdot 3 = 90 - 81= 9$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&\color{Green}{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}9&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Green}{9}&\color{Green}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}8&1&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&9&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: $$$\frac{900}{27}=33. \overline{333}$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{900}{27}=33.\overline{333}$$$
