What is 0.7626 as a fraction?

Numbers can be represented in a variety of ways including percentages, decimals, and fractions. The ability to convert any number from one format to another is an important math skill to have. These skills are typically thought in fifth grade math and require an understanding of place values and Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

In this article, we teach those skills step by step while demonstrating how to convert decimal 0.7626 into a fraction.

Answer: 0.7626 as a fraction equals 7626/10000 or 3813/5000

Here is the solution for converting 0.7626 to a fraction:

Step 1:

First, we write 0.7626 as  
0.7626/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point. Remember the numerator is the top part of the fraction and the denominator is the bottom part!
0.7626/1
  =  
0.7626 x 10000/1 x 10000
  =  
7626/10000


Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 7626 and 10000. A factor is a number that divides into another number without any remainder.

The factors of 7626 are: 1  2  3  6  31  41  62  82  93  123  186  246  1271  2542  3813  7626 
The factors of 10000 are: 1  2  4  5  8  10  16  20  25  40  50  80  100  125  200  250  400  500  625  1000  1250  2000  2500  5000  10000 
So for 7626 and 10000 that gives us a GCF value of: 2

Step 4:

For the last step we reduce the fraction. This just means writing the fraction in the simplest way. To do this we divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF value we determined in step 3.
7626/10000
  =  
7626 ÷ 2/10000 ÷ 2
  =  
3813/5000
