Question

Write the following decimals as fractions. a. .76 b. .3 c. .262 d. .8053

Answer 1

a. 19/25 b. 3/10 c. 131/500 d. 8053/10000

Answer 2

Answer: The required fractions are :

(a)
`(19)/(25).`

(b)
`(3)/(10).`

(c)
`(131)/(500).`

(d)
`(8053)/(10000).`

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to express the following decimals as fractions :

(a) : 0.76.

Here, since there are two digits after the decimal, so the fraction form is

`0.76=(76)/(100)=(19)/(25).`

Thus, the required fraction is
`(19)/(25).`

(b) : 0.3

Here, since there is one digit after the decimal, so the required fraction form is

`0.3=(3)/(10).`

Thus, the required fraction is
`(3)/(10).`

(c) : 0.262

Here, since there are three digits after the decimal, so the required fraction form is

`0.262=(262)/(1000)=(131)/(500).`

Thus, the required fraction is
`(131)/(500).`

(d) : 0.8053

Here, since there are four digits after the decimal, so the required fraction form is

`0.8053=(8053)/(10000).`

Thus, the required fraction is
`(8053)/(10000).`

The required fractions are :

(a)
`(19)/(25).`

(b)
`(3)/(10).`

(c)
`(131)/(500).`

(d)
`(8053)/(10000).`
