<p>Numbers can be categorized into different types. A fraction is one such type, represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. A fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Decimals represent the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2. Numbers in decimal form are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 3.8. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.</p>
