We have to write 8.94 in fractional notation without simplification.

For decimal values, we can convert them to fractions taking into account the number of decimals they have.

In this case, 8.94 has two decimals. Then, we can multiply it by a fraction 100/100, as 100 has two zeros.

Then, we will get:


8.94\cdot(100)/(100)=(8.94\cdot100)/(100)=(894)/(100)

This works beacuse we multiply the number 8.94 by a number that will make it become an integer (without decimals). To keep the value of the fraction equal to the decimal number, we have to divide by the same factor (in this case, 100).

This fraction can be simplified.

Answer: the fractional notation, without simplification, of 8.94 is 894/100.
