Answer: 0.65=13/20

Step-by-step explanation: First, rewrite the decimal number as a fraction and put 1 in the denominator's place. 0.65/1
Then, multiply to get rid of 2 decimal places. Then, multiply top and bottom by 10^2 which equals 100

0.65/1 × 100/100= 65/100

Find the Greatest Common Factor or GCF of 65 and 100, and reduce the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by GCF = 5,


(65/5)/(100/5)=13/20

Hope this helps!
