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 $$$\frac{3300}{100}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\100&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}3&3&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$100$$$'s are in $$$3$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$3-0 \cdot 100 = 3 - 0= 3$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{100}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{DarkCyan}{3}& 3 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$100$$$'s are in $$$33$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$33-0 \cdot 100 = 33 - 0= 33$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{100}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&3& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Peru}{3}&\color{Peru}{3}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$100$$$'s are in $$$330$$$? The answer is $$$3$$$.

Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$330-3 \cdot 100 = 330 - 300= 30$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Red}{3}&\phantom{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{100}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&3&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Red}{3}&\color{Red}{3}&\color{Red}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$100$$$'s are in $$$300$$$? The answer is $$$3$$$.

Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$300-3 \cdot 100 = 300 - 300= 0$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&3&\color{Chartreuse}{3}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{100}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&3&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{Chartreuse}{3}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\color{Chartreuse}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 5

How many $$$100$$$'s are in $$$0$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$0-0 \cdot 100 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&3&3&.&\color{Chocolate}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{100}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}3&3&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{Chocolate}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

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

Therefore, $$$\frac{3300}{100}=33.0$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{3300}{100}=33.0$$$
