How to write 3.8 as a Fraction? A decimal to fraction conversion is the process of representing a decimal number as a fraction. In a fraction, the top number (numerator) represents the part of a whole, and the bottom number (denominator) represents the whole. Converting a decimal to a fraction involves expressing the decimal as a ratio of two numbers, with the denominator being a power of 10. The resulting fraction is usually in its simplest form, which means that the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1.

To conversion Decimal to Fraction follow these steps, which is given below-

  1. Take the decimal value for calculation.
  2. Then, Divided that decimal value by 1, like this
    decimal/1
  3. Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10 for every number after the decimal point.
  4. Then, Find the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) to convert its lowest terms.
  5. Simplify or reduce the fraction.

For calculation, here's how to convert 3.8 as a Fraction using the formula above, step by step instructions are given below

  1. Take only after the decimal point part for calculation.
    .8
  2. Then, divide that value by 1.
    .8/1
  3. Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10 (because there are 1 digits after the decimal point so that is 101 = 10).
    .8 × 10/1 × 10
    =
    8/10
    ;
  4. To simplify
    8/10
    its lowest terms, find GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) for 8 & 10, which is 2. Here's How to Find GCD of 8 and 10?
    8/2/10/2
  5. After simplify or reduce the fraction.
    4/5
  6. For decimal value 3.8, add (+) the base value (3) before the calculated fraction.

    4/5
    =
    19/5
