Answer 1

2.11 can be expressed in mixed number is
`2 (11)/(100)`

Solution:

Given that the decimal number is 2.11

We have to express the number as mixed fraction.

2.11 can be converted to fraction by multiplying and dividing with 100

`(2.11)/(100) * 100`

On simplification we get,

`(211)/(100)`

On dividing 211 by 100 we get quotient as 2 and remainder as 11

The general representation of mixed numbers is:

`\text {quotient } \frac{\text {remainder}}{\text {divisor}}`

For 2.11 we got quotient = 2; remainder = 11; divisor = 100

`\text { Hence we get } 2 (11)/(100)`

Thus 2.11 can be expressed in mixed number is
`2 (11)/(100)`

Answer 2

answer is: 2.11 = 2 11/100
