Is there a quick way to be able to convert this into a fraction in my head? Or a technique that allows you to do this for other decimals as wellSay decimal 4.33 which is 10/3i'm surprised anyone still works in fractional odds ,especially on here Its like moving to France and not learning Frenchhttps://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/26801953/decimal-fraction-calculation?post_id=484603721#484603721i'm surprised anyone still works in fractional odds ,especially on here Its like moving to France and not learning FrenchThu, 03 Feb 2011 07:39:03 -0600I'd imagine in the 4.X example it'd be best to ignore the 4 as it just complicates things and just look at the .33 and just know what is best to fit into that, i.e. (4).4 would be .. 2/5, then add the 4 (3) bit on so that would be 3 * 5 + 2 = 17/5?

Lots of bookies can convert a lot faster than I can even though my intelligence and mathematical ability is massively greater.https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/26801953/decimal-fraction-calculation?post_id=484468505#484468505In summary, the best way is to learn them backwards.

The sure way is to multiply through until there are only zeroes after the decimal point and then divide top and bottom through by each of the prime numbers as many times as theyhttps://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/26801953/decimal-fraction-calculation?post_id=484466265#484466265The quickest way depends on your knowledge of fractional times tables.
