Fraction to Decimal Calculator

Your input: convert $\frac{700}{27}$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccc}\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\27&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccc}7&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 1

How many $27$'s are in $7$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $7-0 \cdot 27 = 7 - 0= 7$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{GoldenRod}{0}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{GoldenRod}{7}& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 2

How many $27$'s are in $70$? The answer is $2$.

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

Now, $70-2 \cdot 27 = 70 - 54= 16$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&\color{Peru}{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}7&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Peru}{7}&\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&6&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 3

How many $27$'s are in $160$? The answer is $5$.

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

Now, $160-5 \cdot 27 = 160 - 135= 25$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&2&\color{DarkBlue}{5}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}7&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DarkBlue}{1}&\color{DarkBlue}{6}&\color{DarkBlue}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&3&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&5&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 4

How many $27$'s are in $250$? The answer is $9$.

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

Now, $250-9 \cdot 27 = 250 - 243= 7$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&2&5&.&\color{Chocolate}{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}7&0&0&.&0& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&6&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&3&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{Chocolate}{2}&\color{Chocolate}{5}&\phantom{.}&\color{Chocolate}{0}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&4&\phantom{.}&3\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&7&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 5

Step 9

How many $27$'s are in $160$? The answer is $5$.

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

Now, $160-5 \cdot 27 = 160 - 135= 25$.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&2&5&.&9&2&5&9&2&\color{OrangeRed}{5}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{27}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}7&0&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}7&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}5&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&6&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&3&5&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&5&\phantom{.}&0\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&4&\phantom{.}&3\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&7&0\\&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&5&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&1&6&0\\&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&1&3&5\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&2&5&0\\&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&2&4&3\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&7&0\\&&&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&5&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&\color{OrangeRed}{1}&\color{OrangeRed}{6}&\color{OrangeRed}{0}\\&&&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&1&3&5\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&&2&5\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: $\frac{700}{27}=25. \overline{925}$

Answer: $\frac{700}{27}=25.\overline{925}$
