To change fractions into decimals, you can follow these simple steps:

1. Identify the Fraction:

   • First, look at the fraction you want to convert, like 1/4 or 3/10.

2. Do the Division:

   • Next, divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator).
   • You can use a long division method or a calculator.

3. Know Decimal Places:

   • It’s important to understand what decimal places are: like tenths, hundredths, thousandths, and so on.
   • The bottom number (denominator) tells you how many equal parts the whole is divided into.
   • For example, if the denominator is 10, it means you have tenths.

4. Common Fractions to Remember:

     • 1/2 equals 0.5
     • 3/4 equals 0.75
