Question

144.8% to a fraction in lowest terms

Answer 1

For this case we can do the following:

We can multiply the numerator ny 10 and then divide by 10 like this:

`(144.8\cdot10)/(10)=(1448)/(10)=(724)/(5)`

Then we can convert the % to fraction dividing by 100 and we got:

`(724)/(5)\cdot(1)/(100)=(724)/(500)=(181)/(125)`

Then the fraction would be given by: 181/125
