how to convert decimal to fraction?


Sagot :

Hi! So, what you gonna is to determine or know the units in a decimal.
Example:
0.35
So, The unit is hundreths. So, you gonna divide it to hundred and remove the decimal point
Example:
35/100
After you do that, simplify the fraction
Example:
7/20
Thats the final answer
decimal---->fraction

Example:

0.29
the
For me the easiest way ,is by counting the digits after decimal point..so there are two decimal places, which means that there must be two zeros in the denominator of the fraction..

0.29 ---> 29/100


Another example:

1.48

You can notice that theres a number before the decimal point,which means that this number is a whole number in the fraction

Therefore:

1.48 ---> 1 48/100 or you can simplify this

1 48/100 ---> 1 12/25

hope it can help :)
