Here are the fractions converted to decimals:

  1. Convert 12\frac{1}{2} to a decimal.

    To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator.

    12=1÷2=0.5\frac{1}{2} = 1 \div 2 = 0.5

    The decimal form is 0.5\boxed{0.5}.

  2. Convert 35\frac{3}{5} to a decimal.

    Divide the numerator by the denominator.

    35=3÷5=0.6\frac{3}{5} = 3 \div 5 = 0.6

    The decimal form is 0.6\boxed{0.6}.

  3. Convert 53\frac{5}{3} to a decimal.

    Divide the numerator by the denominator.

    53=5÷3=1.666...\frac{5}{3} = 5 \div 3 = 1.666...

    This is a repeating decimal, which can be written as 1.6‾1.\overline{6}.
    The decimal form is 1.6‾\boxed{1.\overline{6}}.
