Question

What is 4.02 as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form

Answer 1

We look at the .02 to form the fraction it has two digits that end in the hundreths place so we can place 2 over 100 and it still equals .2
`(2)/(100)`. Our fraction is now
`4 (2)/(100)`, but this is not reduced. We look at the
`(2)/(100)` and see what it can be divided by in this case the lowest common factor is 2. We divide the top by 2 and the bottom by 2. This gives us
`(1)/(50)`. The end product is
`4 (1)/(50)`.
