16/25 as a Decimal

In order to change 16/25 to decimal form we need to divide 16 by 25. We know that since 16 is smaller than 25 we are going to end up with a number less than 1.

We can divide 16/25 with a calculator or do it longhand. In this video I did the division longhand (but checked my answer with a calculator). When we divide 16 by 25, we get 0.64.

So:   16/25 = 0.64
0.64 is less than 1 so that is a good way to check if our answer is reasonable. You could also multiply your answer by the denominator and you should get the numerator. In this case 0.64 x 25 = 16.

Note that 16/25 and 0.64 represent the same quantity, they are just written in different formats. 16/25 is a fraction and 0.64 is in decimal form.
