A fraction is really just a division problem. 1 /2 is 1 divided by 2, 2/3 is two divided by three and so on. So, to convert a fraction to a decimal, just do the division like this:
2 is 2/3 is 2-:-3 is 0.667
3
This is my preferred method. Another method is to make the denominator one hundred by multiplying, like this:
5 x5 = 25 is 0.25
20 x5 = 100
this is because a decimal is part of a whole.
