Answer:

2 27/50

Explanation:

Since the 2 is in front of the decimal point we know that its a full fraction so we cant put it in front of the fraction 2 __/__

Now lets input 54 into the fraction, since 100 is the proper number to use with a decimal with 2 numbers after, we will make the the denominator. 2 54/100

Now lets simplify the fraction by dividing the fraction by 2 2 (54/2)/(100/2)= 2 27/50


so your answer is 2 27/50
