Spanish term or phrase: Deducimos
I am translating a secondary school app with maths content.

Deducimos comes up at the beginning of every sentence, here are some examples:

Deducimos la expresión decimal de fracciones (expresión decimal finita)

Deducimos la expresión decimal de fracciones (expresión decimal finita o infinita periódica pura o mixta)

Deducimos la fracción o la expresión decimal de un racional con expresión decimal finita o infinita periódica pura

So, I´m thinking ´work out´ or ´convert´, because in the context of fractions and decimals you talk about converting one to the other. But I think the Spanish meaning of ´deducimos´ in this context has to do with a longer thinking process where you infer the answer from known facts. But infer wouldn´t work either in a maths context.

So maybe ´work out´?

Help!

Asker: Thanks Andres, yes I thought convert works well in some sentences although I used 'work out ' in others. Thanks so much!

Explanation:
As it's an app, putting 'is explained' at the end of each sentence would work and would avoid any tricky nuances.

Asker: Thank you. Yes, I think work out works in some sentences, but convert would work in others like: Deducimos la expresión decimal de fracciones y viceversa Convert decimals to fractions and vice versa. Do you agree? You can also work out a fraction from a decimal and vice versa but the correct term when working with fractions decimals and percentages is to convert. Right? Sorry I´m just making double, extra sure.
