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 $$$\frac{3200}{50}$$$ into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{6}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\50&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}3&2&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 1
How many $$$50$$$'s are in $$$3$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$3-0 \cdot 50 = 3 - 0= 3$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{3}& 2 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 2
How many $$$50$$$'s are in $$$32$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$32-0 \cdot 50 = 32 - 0= 32$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&2& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Peru}{3}&\color{Peru}{2}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 3
How many $$$50$$$'s are in $$$320$$$? The answer is $$$6$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$320-6 \cdot 50 = 320 - 300= 20$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Red}{6}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&2&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Red}{3}&\color{Red}{2}&\color{Red}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 4
How many $$$50$$$'s are in $$$200$$$? The answer is $$$4$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$200-4 \cdot 50 = 200 - 200= 0$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&\color{Chartreuse}{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&2&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{Chartreuse}{2}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 5
How many $$$50$$$'s are in $$$0$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$0-0 \cdot 50 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&4&.&\color{Chocolate}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&2&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{2}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{Chocolate}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Since the remainder is $$$0$$$, then we are done.
Therefore, $$$\frac{3200}{50}=64.0$$$
Answer: $$$\frac{3200}{50}=64.0$$$
