About Fraction and Decimal MCQs
This category builds core arithmetic accuracy. Questions include decimal subtraction and multiplication such as 0.1 × 0.1 × 0.1, shifting decimal points using a known result like 2994 ÷ 14.5 = 172, simplifying expressions with several fractions, and converting values such as 1/20 or 101/27 into decimals. Comparison questions ask which fraction is less than 2/7, which list is in descending order, and how a variable like n = 5/6 compares with 1/n.
Fractions and decimals appear directly in aptitude tests and also underpin percentages, ratios, averages and data interpretation. Small slips with decimal places are a common cause of lost marks. Practising these MCQs builds speed with conversions and estimation, so you can handle larger word problems with confidence. Clean decimal handling also supports later topics such as simple interest, unit rates and percentage calculations in banking tests.
Key facts to remember
- A proper fraction has a numerator smaller than its denominator.
- One second is 1/3600 of an hour, which is about 0.000278 hours.
- When multiplying decimals, the answer has as many decimal places as both numbers combined.
- To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator or to decimals.
- The fraction 1/20 written as a decimal is 0.05, since it equals 5/100.

How to prepare for Fraction and Decimal MCQs
- Memorise decimal equivalents of common fractions such as 1/8 = 0.125 and 3/8 = 0.375 to speed up comparisons.
- When a question gives one division result, adjust only the decimal places instead of recalculating from scratch.
- Count decimal places carefully in multiplication, as many wrong options differ from the right one only by a decimal shift.
- To order several fractions quickly, cross-multiply pairs or convert each to a two-place decimal.
Frequently asked questions
How do you convert a fraction to a decimal?
Divide the numerator by the denominator. For example, 3/4 equals 3 divided by 4, which is 0.75. If the denominator can be made a power of 10, such as 1/20 = 5/100, you can write the decimal directly as 0.05.
How many Fraction and Decimal MCQs are on MCQs360?
MCQs360 has 72 Fraction and Decimal MCQs, each with an instant answer. You can practise free without signing up and use them to strengthen the number basics needed for every aptitude test. Start with conversions, then try the comparison questions.
Which exams ask Fraction and Decimal MCQs?
These questions appear in NTS, GAT, ECAT, ISSB and public service commission tests in Pakistan. In India they are common in SSC CGL, SSC CHSL, SSC MTS, IBPS Clerk and RRB exams, and in Bangladesh in BCS, bank and primary teacher recruitment tests.
How can I compare fractions quickly in an exam?
Use cross-multiplication: for a/b and c/d, compare a × d with b × c. The larger product shows the larger fraction. Alternatively, convert each fraction to a decimal to two places, which works well when ordering several fractions at once.
