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 $$$\frac{4800}{80}$$$ into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{6}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\80&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}4&8&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 1
How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$4$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$4-0 \cdot 80 = 4 - 0= 4$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Green}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Green}{4}& 8 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 2
How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$48$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$48-0 \cdot 80 = 48 - 0= 48$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{Brown}{0}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&8& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Brown}{4}&\color{Brown}{8}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 3
How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$480$$$? The answer is $$$6$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$480-6 \cdot 80 = 480 - 480= 0$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Crimson}{6}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&8&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Crimson}{4}&\color{Crimson}{8}&\color{Crimson}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 4
How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$0$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$0-0 \cdot 80 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&8&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Step 5
How many $$$80$$$'s are in $$$0$$$? The answer is $$$0$$$.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, $$$0-0 \cdot 80 = 0 - 0= 0$$$.
$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&6&0&.&\color{DarkCyan}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{80}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&8&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{8}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&8&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&0&0&\phantom{.}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{DarkCyan}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
Since the remainder is $$$0$$$, then we are done.
Therefore, $$$\frac{4800}{80}=60.0$$$
Answer: $$$\frac{4800}{80}=60.0$$$
