Question

Write the following decimal number in its equivalent fraction form. Show all work for full credit.

0. 225

Answer 1

`(9)/(40)`

Explanation:

`(225)/(1000)` From the decimal going left we would read the decimal as the tenths, hundreths, thousandths. The last digit is in the thousandths places, so we would read the number 225 thousandths. We place the 225 over 1000.

This would simply to
`(9)/(100)`

`(225)/(1000)` ÷
`(25)/(25)` =
`(9)/(40)`
