To convert a fraction to a decimal, you divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator). Here are the step-by-step solutions for each problem on the worksheet:
Row 1:
1.
4/6: Divide 4 by 6. This equals $0.666...$, which rounds to
0.67 (or $0.\overline{6}$).
2.
8/3: Divide 8 by 3. This equals $2.666...$, which rounds to
2.67 (or $2.\overline{6}$).
3.
11/5: Divide 11 by 5. $11 \div 5 =$
2.2.
Row 2:
4.
5/3: Divide 5 by 3. This equals $1.666...$, which rounds to
1.67 (or $1.\overline{6}$).
5.
25/4: Divide 25 by 4. $25 \div 4 =$
6.25.
6.
1/5: Divide 1 by 5. $1 \div 5 =$
0.2.
Row 3:
7.
3/4: Divide 3 by 4. $3 \div 4 =$
0.75.
8.
12/5: Divide 12 by 5. $12 \div 5 =$
2.4.
9.
16/22: First simplify to 8/11. Divide 8 by 11. This equals $0.7272...$, which rounds to
0.73 (or $0.\overline{72}$).
Row 4:
10.
2/15: Divide 2 by 15. This equals $0.1333...$, which rounds to
0.13 (or $0.1\overline{3}$).
11.
9/7: Divide 9 by 7. This equals $1.2857...$, which rounds to
1.29 (or approx $1.286$).
12.
4/5: Divide 4 by 5. $4 \div 5 =$
0.8.
Row 5:
13.
18/7: Divide 18 by 7. This equals $2.5714...$, which rounds to
2.57.
14.
24/11: Divide 24 by 11. This equals $2.1818...$, which rounds to
2.18 (or $2.\overline{18}$).
15.
33/10: Divide 33 by 10. Move the decimal one spot left.
3.3.
Row 6:
16.
1/8: Divide 1 by 8. $1 \div 8 =$
0.125.
17.
8/15: Divide 8 by 15. This equals $0.5333...$, which rounds to
0.53 (or $0.5\overline{3}$).
18.
13/10: Divide 13 by 10. Move the decimal one spot left.
1.3.
Final Answer:
Row 1: 0.67 (repeating), 2.67 (repeating), 2.2
