Calcolatrice da frazione a decimale
Convertire le frazioni in decimali passo dopo passo
La calcolatrice converte la frazione (propria o impropria) o il numero misto dato in un numero decimale (eventualmente, ripetuto o ricorrente), con i passaggi indicati.
Solution
Your input: convert 390042 into a decimal.
Write the problem in the special format:
\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{9}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}\end{array}&\\42&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}3&9&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}
Step 1
How many 42's are in 3? The answer is 0.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 3-0 \cdot 42 = 3 - 0= 3.
Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

Step 16
How many 42's are in 120? The answer is 2.
Write down the calculated result in the upper part of the table.
Now, 120-2 \cdot 42 = 120 - 84= 36.

As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: \frac{3900}{42}=92.8 \overline{571428}
Answer: \frac{3900}{42}=92.8\overline{571428}
