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 $$$\frac{2000}{32}$$$ into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{6}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\32&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}2&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 1
How many $$$32$$$'s are in $$$2$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$2-32 \cdot 0 = 2 - 0= 2$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{32}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Peru}{2}& 0 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 2
How many $$$32$$$'s are in $$$20$$$?
The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$20-32 \cdot 0 = 20 - 0= 20$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{32}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&0& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{SaddleBrown}{2}&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 3
How many $$$32$$$'s are in $$$200$$$?
The answer is $$$6$$$.
Write down $$$6$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$200-32 \cdot 6 = 200 - 192= 8$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{OrangeRed}{6}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{32}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&0&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{OrangeRed}{2}&\color{OrangeRed}{0}&\color{OrangeRed}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&9&2&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&8&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 4
How many $$$32$$$'s are in $$$80$$$?
The answer is $$$2$$$.
Write down $$$2$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$80-32 \cdot 2 = 80 - 64= 16$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&\color{Chocolate}{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{32}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&0&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&9&2&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{Chocolate}{8}&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&6&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&1&6&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 5
How many $$$32$$$'s are in $$$160$$$?
The answer is $$$5$$$.
Write down $$$5$$$ in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$160-32 \cdot 5 = 160 - 160= 0$$$.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&2&.&\color{Purple}{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{32}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&0&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}1&9&2&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&8&0&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&6&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{Purple}{1}&\color{Purple}{6}&\phantom{.}&\color{Purple}{0}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&1&6&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Since the remainder is $$$0$$$, then we are done.
Therefore, $$$\frac{2000}{32}=62.5$$$
Answer: $$$\frac{2000}{32}=62.5$$$
