Question

I would like to know what 1.34 as a fraction in simplest form would be

Answer 1

`1.34 = 1 (34)/(100) = 1 (34 / 2)/(100 / 2) = 1 (17)/(50)`





-------- Edited to include more explanation --------------

1.34 = 1 whole 34 hundredth


`\text { 1 whole 34 hundredth written as a fraction =} 1 (34)/(100)`

Then we simplified it by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 2:


`1 (34)/(100) = 1 (34 / 2)/(100 / 2)`

34 divided by 2 will give us 17 and 100 divided by 2 will give us 50:


`1 (34 / 2)/(100 / 2) = 1 (17)/(50)`
