fraction into decimal

hi i got 3/8 and i need to make it in to a decimal. how do i do this.

thanks for help

Get your calculator and type 3/8. You can also use the Google Calculator for it, just type 3/8 in the search field (link). By the way you divide it by hand :D (If you don't know check this.)

thanks alot for the answer but i need to show my workings out and i don't get long division. if you could help please post back thanks again bye

You can only show work by writing the long division which I can't explain better than Wikipedia.

hi again, thanks alot for the help i get it now. thanks bye

Glad to hear that :)
