Fraction to Decimal Calculator
Convert fractions to decimals step by step
The calculator will convert the given fraction (proper or improper) or mixed number into a decimal (possibly, repeating or recurring), with steps shown.
Solution
Your input: convert 200028 into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}\end{array}&\\28&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}2&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}
Step 1
How many 28's are in 2? The answer is 0.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 2-0 \cdot 28 = 2 - 0= 2.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccccccc}\color{DarkBlue}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{28}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccccccc}\color{DarkBlue}{2}& 0 \downarrow&0&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llllllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}
Step 2
How many 28's are in 20? The answer is 0.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 20-0 \cdot 28 = 20 - 0= 20.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccccccc}0&\color{Violet}{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{28}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccccccc}2&0& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llllllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Violet}{2}&\color{Violet}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}2&0&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}
Step 3
How many 28's are in 200? The answer is 7.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 200-7 \cdot 28 = 200 - 196= 4.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 5
How many 28's are in 120? The answer is 4.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 120-4 \cdot 28 = 120 - 112= 8.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 6
How many 28's are in 80? The answer is 2.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 80-2 \cdot 28 = 80 - 56= 24.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 7
How many 28's are in 240? The answer is 8.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 240-8 \cdot 28 = 240 - 224= 16.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.
