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 143 by the denominator 34:
143 (numerator) ÷ 34 (denominator) = 4.21
As a result, you get 4.21 as your answer when you convert 4 7/34 (or 143/34) to a decimal.
