Fraction to Decimal Calculator
Convert a fraction into a decimal number.
Worth Knowing
A fraction becomes a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator, and the result either terminates or repeats — it never trails off randomly. Whether it terminates depends entirely on the denominator: only denominators whose prime factors are just 2 and 5 give clean, finite decimals, which is why 1/8 is tidy but 1/3 and 1/7 repeat. Recognizing this saves you from rounding a repeating decimal and quietly introducing error.
