Yes, all you do is divide the numerator (the top number) by the denomonator.

Answer 11

Yes. Yes.

1/5 = 0.2

1/4 = 0.25

1/2 = 0.5

1/1 = 1.0

Answer 14

Answer 15

duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Answer 16

Yes, I'm smarter than a third grader.

No, it is not proper to put fractions in decimals (or decimals in fractions).

I mean that writing a thing as 2.5/4.3 is not a proper way to write a fraction, and it is not proper to write 3.4 1/2 either.

However, you CAN turn fractions into equivalent decimals:

1/1=1

1/2=.5

1/3=.33(continuing forever)

1/4=.25

etc...

Answer 17

yes

Answer 18

yes

1/2 = 0.5

2/3 = .667

1/3 = .333

divide the numerator by the denominator

Answer 19

Yes.

Example

1/2 becomes 0.5

Answer 20

yeah.....

Answer 21

of course

Answer 22

yes they can

Answer 23

Every single one can

Answer 24

well, yes.  but that doesn't make me smarter than a third grader.  my third grader knows how to convert fractions to decimals.

Answer 25

umm... yeah.

Why would a third grader be on here?

Answer 26

If you mean exactly, then no, not always. For instance 1/3 cannot be represented exactly in decimals.

Otherwise, yes. A decimal is just another way to express a fraction.

Answer 27

Yes.

Answer 28

YES!

Answer 29

Of course 1/4 is 0.25.
