A fraction, like 2/9, has a numerator and a denominator separated by a dividing line.

2 is the numerator, because it is the number above the dividing line.

9 is the denominator because it is the bottom number of the dividing line.

To convert 2/9 to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator.


\bold{2 ÷ 9 ≈ 0.222222 ⇒ Answer}
