One method to convert 70/48 to a decimal is by using the division method. Before we move ahead to the method, here is a quick recap on fractions: A fraction is a number representation that is broken down into two parts - the number on top is called the numerator, and the number on the bottom is called the denominator. To get a decimal using the division method, simply divide the numerator 70 by the denominator 48:
70 (numerator) ÷ 48 (denominator) = 1.46
And there you go! We got 1.46 as the answer when you convert 1 22/48 (or 70/48) to a decimal.
