Convert the Fraction: Simplifying 6/500 to Decimal Form

Let's first multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 to make the denominaor 1000:

$\frac{6\times2}{500\times2}=\frac{12}{1000}$

Now let's rewrite the simple fraction as a decimal:

$12.0$

Since the fraction divides by 1000, we'll move the decimal point three places to the left:

$.0120$

Finally we can add a zero before the decimal point to get our answer:

$0.0120=0.012$
