<p>Numbers can be categorized into different types. Fraction is one of its kind. It is always represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. Fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Decimals represent the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2. The numbers in decimal are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 18.7. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Firstly, any decimal<a>number</a>should be converted to a fraction for easy calculation. Here, 18.7 is the number on the<a>numerator</a>and the<a>base</a>number 1 will be the<a>denominator</a>. Then, 18.7 becomes 18.7/1.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>To remove the decimal from a fraction, you need to multiply both the<a>numerator and denominator</a>by 10 (because there is only 1 decimal place). 18.7/1 × 10/10 = 187/10</p>
