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 $$$\frac{7000}{80}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{8}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\80&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}7&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$7$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$7-80 \cdot 0 = 7 - 0= 7$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Peru}{7}& 0 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$70$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

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

Now, $$$70-80 \cdot 0 = 70 - 0= 70$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}7&0& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DeepPink}{7}&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$700$$$?

The answer is $$$8$$$.

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

Now, $$$700-80 \cdot 8 = 700 - 640= 60$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Chartreuse}{8}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}7&0&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Chartreuse}{7}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&6&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$600$$$?

The answer is $$$7$$$.

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

Now, $$$600-80 \cdot 7 = 600 - 560= 40$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&\color{GoldenRod}{7}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}7&0&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{GoldenRod}{6}&\color{GoldenRod}{0}&\color{GoldenRod}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&5&6&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&4&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 5

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

The answer is $$$5$$$.

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

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

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&7&.&\color{Red}{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}7&0&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}6&4&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&6&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&5&6&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{Red}{4}&\color{Red}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{Red}{0}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&4&0&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

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

Therefore, $$$\frac{7000}{80}=87.5$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{7000}{80}=87.5$$$
