In these type of fractions, the decimal moves left the number of zeroes in the divisor times. Herein the given question 18/1000, there are 3 zeros in 1000 (divisor). Hence, the quotient is 0.018.
The quotient of 18/1000 = 0.018.
1/8 to convert into decimal,
Find an equivalent fraction with a denominator of a power of 10.
In this case, we will use 1000.
This can now be written as a decimal with 3 decimal places (because we have thousandths.
i.e, 0.125
Hence,
5/8 is Nothing but to divide 5 into 8 parts.
As 5 is smaller than 8, the quotient starts with a decimal point to make 5 as 50 to be divisible by 8. (0.)
Now 50 goes for 6 times in 8 leaving a remainder 2. (0.6)
Again 2 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 2 becomes 20.
Now 20 goes for 2 times in 8 leaving a remainder 4. (0.62)
Again 4 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 4 becomes 40.
Now 40 goes for 5 times in 8 leaving a remainder 0. (0.625)
Therefore, the decimal value of is 0.625.
Now find a decimal value of and Discuss your at Discuss.
125 over 1000 in Simplest Form means in its simple fraction form.
Now, to get the simplest form of 125/1000, find the HCF or GCD of both numerator and denominator i.e, 125 and 1000.
HCF of 125, 1000 = 125
Then, divide both numerator and denominator by 125
i.e,
Hence, is the simplest form of 125 over 1000.
Here I converted the original fraction to a fraction with the denominator being 10, because decimals can be written in the tenths place.
Given 0.875 and 0.375
0.875 ::
After decimal point there are 3 digits 875
Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000
Similarly,
0.375 ::
After decimal point there are 3 digits 375
Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000
Here in decimal means 8th part in 1.
We know that = 0.1
Then,
=>
3/8 as a Decimal :
In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple.
Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125
=>
1/10 as a Decimal :
1 divided into 10 parts of each 0.1.
Therefore, 3/8 = 0.375 and 1/10 = 0.1 in decimals.
3/4 divided by 2
= 3/4/2
= 3/4x2
= 3/8.
Hence, 3/4 divided by 2 is equal to 3/8.
Expressing 3/8 as a decimal fraction:
We can convert 3/8 into a decimal fraction by just dividing 3 by 8 or making 3 into 8 parts.
Then, it is 3/8 = 0.375 as a decimal fraction.
Other Method::
3/8 as a Decimal :
In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple.
Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125
=> (3 x 125)/(8 x 125) = 375/1000 = 0.375.
