Explanation:

Dewayne waters his plant with 0.76 quart of water every other day .

Lets write the number 0.76 in word form and fraction form

In 0.76, 7 is in tenths place and 6 is in hundredths place

0.76 can be written as 76 tenths

To get fraction form , remove the decimal by multiply it by 100

0.76 or 0.76/1 are same

`(0.76)/(1) =(0.76 \cdot 100)/(1 \cdot 100) =(76)/(100)`

Now reduce the fraction

divide both sides by 4

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