We will start by understanding how a decimal represents the fractional part of a number, then break down the steps to rewrite 0.8132 as a fraction. Finally, we will simplify the fraction by identifying and applying the Greatest Common Factor, ensuring the results are in the simplest form.

By the end of this guide, you should have a good understanding of decimal to fraction conversions and be able to apply this knowledge to various mathematical problems. Let's begin.

0.8132 as a fraction equals 8132/10000 or 2033/2500

Now let's break down the steps for converting 0.8132 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express 0.8132 as a fraction by placing it over 1:
0.8132/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
0.8132 x 10000/1 x 10000
  =  
8132/10000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 8132 and 10000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 8132 are: 1 2 4 19 38 76 107 214 428 2033 4066 8132
The factors of 10000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 16 20 25 40 50 80 100 125 200 250 400 500 625 1000 1250 2000 2500 5000 10000
The GCF of 8132 and 10000 is: 4

Step 4:

To simplify the fraction, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which we calculated in the previous step. The GCF value is 4 in this case.
8132 ÷ 4/10000 ÷ 4
  =  
2033/2500


Great Work! We've just determined that 0.8132 as a fraction equals 8132/10000 or 2033/2500 in its simplest form.

Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

Read the following section to help deepen your understanding of basic math concepts.

What are whole numbers?

Whole numbers are numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. Whole numbers do not have a decimal point or fractional part. Whole numbers are always positive. Negative numbers are not considered whole.

What are rational numbers?

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the fraction of two integers, such as 3/4, -5/2, or 0.75.

What is an exponent?

An exponent refers to the number of times a number (the base) is multiplied by itself. For example, 2³ means 2 × 2 × 2 = 8.

What is an absolute value?

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero. For example, the absolute value of -20 is 20.

What is a repeating decimal?

A repeating decimal is a decimal in which a digit or group of digits repeats infinitely. For example, 0.3333... (where 3 repeats forever) and 0.142857142857... (where 142857 repeats) are repeating decimals.

What are rounding decimals?

Rounding decimals means adjusting a number to a given place value. For example, rounding 3.186 to two decimal places gives 3.19. Note that last digit which is 6 is closer to 10 than 1 so the digit before it which is 8 move up a value to 9.
