Fraction to Decimal Calculator

Your input: convert $\frac{4400}{50}$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\50&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}4&4&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 1

How many $50$'s are in $4$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $4-0 \cdot 50 = 4 - 0= 4$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Red}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}\color{Red}{4}& 4 \downarrow&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 2

How many $50$'s are in $44$? The answer is $0$.

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

Now, $44-0 \cdot 50 = 44 - 0= 44$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&\color{DarkBlue}{0}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&4& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{DarkBlue}{4}&\color{DarkBlue}{4}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 3

How many $50$'s are in $440$? The answer is $8$.

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

Now, $440-8 \cdot 50 = 440 - 400= 40$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&\color{Chocolate}{8}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&4&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Chocolate}{4}&\color{Chocolate}{4}&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

Step 4

How many $50$'s are in $400$? The answer is $8$.

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

Now, $400-8 \cdot 50 = 400 - 400= 0$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&\color{Brown}{8}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&4&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{Brown}{4}&\color{Brown}{0}&\color{Brown}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&0&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

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

$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccc}0&0&8&8&.&\color{DarkCyan}{0}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{50}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccc}4&4&0&0&.&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllll}-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}4&4&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}\\\phantom{lll}4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{4}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&4&0&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{DarkCyan}{0}&\phantom{.}&\color{DarkCyan}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&\phantom{.}&0\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$

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

Therefore, $\frac{4400}{50}=88.0$

Answer: $\frac{4400}{50}=88.0$
