Fractional notation is the form of a number when expressed in ‘a/b’. Here ‘a’ and ‘b’ are integers and ‘b’ is not equal to ‘0’. Any
decimal number can be expressed in fractional notation form by dividing appropriately. Convert to fractional notation calculator
is a fun online tool which can easily convert any decimal to its fractional form.
Example 1: Convert the decimal 0.45 to fractional notation.
Given decimal number: 0.45
Count the number of places on the right side after the decimal point.With as many places after the decimal point, multiply
by the number of that many zeroes!
0.45 contains 2 places on the right sideafter the decimal point.
Multiply and divide 0.45 by ‘100’.
(0.45 * 100)/100 45/100
Fraction 45/100 can be simplified further by dividing by ‘5’ on the numerator and on the denominator.
(45/5) / (100/5) = 9/20
Example 2: Convert the decimal 1.325 to fractional notation.
Given decimal number: 1.325
Count the number of places on the right side after the decimal point. With as many places after the decimal point, multiply
by the number of that many zeroes!
1.325 contains 3 places on the right sideafter the decimal point.
Multiply and divide 1.325 by ‘1000’.
(1.325 * 1000)/1000 1325/1000
Fraction 1325/1000 can be simplified further by dividing by ‘25’ on the numerator and on the denominator.
(1325/25) / (1000/25) = 53/40
