Hi Hannah,

1) You can change a fraction to a decimal by dividing.

So 3/4 means 3 divided by 4. Now you have to use long division, adding enough zeroes.

..._____. So bring the decimal point straight up and do the division as usual.
4)3.00

...0.75
4)3.00
....28
--------
.......20
.......20
---------

So 3/4 = 0.75

2) OR you can try to convert your fraction to tenths, hundredths, ot thousandths...

So 3/4= ?/100

4 goes into 100, 25 times, and 25*3= 75

Then 3/4= 75/100= 0.75

Hoping this helps you, but your teacher can show you better with one to one explanations!
