How to turn 13/16 into a decimal
Divide the top number by the bottom one: 13 ÷ 16. 16 does not go into 13, so write 0 and a decimal point, put a 0 after the 13 and divide:
- 130 ÷ 16 = 8, remainder 2 (8 × 16 = 128)
- Bring down a 0: 20 ÷ 16 = 1, remainder 4 (1 × 16 = 16)
- Bring down a 0: 40 ÷ 16 = 2, remainder 8 (2 × 16 = 32)
- Bring down a 0: 80 ÷ 16 = 5, remainder 0 (5 × 16 = 80). Remainder 0, so the division ends: 13/16 = 0.8125
To read it as a percentage, move the decimal point two places to the right: 81.25%.
