A fraction is written in terms of two parts: the number on top is called the numerator and the number on the bottom is called the denominator. We can use the division method to solve this question. To get a decimal, simply divide the numerator 62 by the denominator 44:
62 (numerator) ÷ 44 (denominator) = 1.41
As a result, you get 1.41 as your answer when you convert 1 18/44 (or 62/44) to a decimal.
