Answer:

6/25

Explanation:

step 1 The decimal number = 0.24

step 2 Write it as a fraction

0.24/1

step 3 Multiply 100 to both numerator & denominator

(0.24 x 100)/(1 x 100) = 24/100

It can be written as 24% = 24/100 or 24/100

step 4 To simplify 24/100 to its lowest terms, find LCM (Least Common Multiple) for 24 & 100.

4 is the LCM for 24 & 100

step 5 divide numerator & denominator by 4

24/100 = (24 / 4) / (100 / 4)

= 6/25

6/25 is a simplest fraction for the decimal point number 0.24
