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.

Enter a fraction or

If you don't need a mixed number, leave the left cell empty.
If you need a negative fraction, write the minus sign in the left cell.

If the calculator did not compute something or you have identified an error, or you have a suggestion/feedback, please contact us.

Solution

Your input: convert $$$\frac{6800}{80}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\80&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}6&8&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$6$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$6-80 \cdot 0 = 6 - 0= 6$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Green}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Green}{6}& 8 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$68$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$68-80 \cdot 0 = 68 - 0= 68$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{BlueViolet}{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}6&8& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{BlueViolet}{6}&\color{BlueViolet}{8}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$680$$$?

The answer is $$$8$$$.

Write down $$$8$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$680-80 \cdot 8 = 680 - 640= 40$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{DarkBlue}{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}6&8&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DarkBlue}{6}&\color{DarkBlue}{8}&\color{DarkBlue}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$400$$$?

The answer is $$$5$$$.

Write down $$$5$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$400-80 \cdot 5 = 400 - 400= 0$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&\color{SaddleBrown}{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}6&8&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{SaddleBrown}{4}&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 5

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$0$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$0-80 \cdot 0 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&5&.&\color{DeepPink}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}6&8&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}6&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{DeepPink}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Since the remainder is $$$0$$$, then we are done.

Therefore, $$$\frac{6800}{80}=85.0$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{6800}{80}=85.0$$$
