How to turn 11/16 into a decimal
Divide the top number by the bottom one: 11 ÷ 16. 16 does not go into 11, so write 0 and a decimal point, put a 0 after the 11 and divide:
- 110 ÷ 16 = 6, remainder 14 (6 × 16 = 96)
- Bring down a 0: 140 ÷ 16 = 8, remainder 12 (8 × 16 = 128)
- Bring down a 0: 120 ÷ 16 = 7, remainder 8 (7 × 16 = 112)
- Bring down a 0: 80 ÷ 16 = 5, remainder 0 (5 × 16 = 80). Remainder 0, so the division ends: 11/16 = 0.6875
To read it as a percentage, move the decimal point two places to the right: 68.75%.
