Fraction to Decimal Calculator

Your input: convert $\frac{2300}{50}$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{4}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\50&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}2&3&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 1

How many $50$'s are in $2$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $2-0 \cdot 50 = 2 - 0= 2$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Purple}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Purple}{2}& 3 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 2

How many $50$'s are in $23$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $23-0 \cdot 50 = 23 - 0= 23$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{Green}{0}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&3& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Green}{2}&\color{Green}{3}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 3

How many $50$'s are in $230$? The answer is $4$.

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

Now, $230-4 \cdot 50 = 230 - 200= 30$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Fuchsia}{4}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&3&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Fuchsia}{2}&\color{Fuchsia}{3}&\color{Fuchsia}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 4

How many $50$'s are in $300$? The answer is $6$.

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

Now, $300-6 \cdot 50 = 300 - 300= 0$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&4&\color{SaddleBrown}{6}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&3&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{SaddleBrown}{3}&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\color{SaddleBrown}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 5

How many $50$'s are in $0$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $0-0 \cdot 50 = 0 - 0= 0$.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&4&6&.&\color{DeepPink}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}2&3&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{3}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&3&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{DeepPink}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{DeepPink}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Since the remainder is $0$, then we are done.

Therefore, $\frac{2300}{50}=46.0$

Answer: $\frac{2300}{50}=46.0$
