Use this free decimal to fraction calculator to turn a terminating decimal into a simplified fraction. Enter a positive decimal, negative decimal, whole number, or decimal greater than 1 to get an exact fraction, a mixed number when needed, and clear calculation steps.
Convert a terminating decimal into an exact simplified fraction.
Enter a decimal to see the simplified fraction and calculation steps.
To convert a decimal to a fraction, count the decimal places, write the digits over 10, 100, 1,000, or the matching power of 10, and simplify the fraction. For example, 0.625 becomes 625/1000, which simplifies to 5/8. The decimal to fraction calculator performs the same steps and shows the exact result.
Yes. The decimal to fraction calculator finds the greatest common divisor and reduces every exact result to a fraction in simplest form. If the decimal is greater than 1, the main answer is shown as a mixed number, such as 2.75 = 2 3/4.
The calculator accepts finite decimal input, not repeating-bar notation or an infinite decimal. When a decimal has at least six places and closely matches a common repeating fraction, the calculator may show a separate approximation such as 0.333333 ≈ 1/3. The exact decimal-to-fraction result always remains the main answer.
