Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

15.
-(27)/(20) or
-1(7)/(20)

-1.35 = -135/100 =
-1(35)/(100) (Mixed number)

Multiply the number by 100, then divide the number by 100 (but keep it in fraction form).

-1.35 x 100 = -135


-(135)/(100) =
-(27)/(20)

(Mixed Fraction = . To check, multiply the 20 by the 1, then add 7, to get -27/20)

18.
(49)/(11) or
4(5)/(11)

4.45 = 49/11 =
4(5)/(11)

4.4545.....

Multiply the number by 100 (because there is 2 numbers being repeated.

445.4545....

Now subtract by the original number.

445.4545....

- 4.4545....

441.00

Write this as an equation:

(100 x fraction) - fraction = 441 (100 x fraction) - fraction = 99 x fraction

99 x fraction = 441 (Divide both sides by 99)

fraction =
(441)/(99) (which simplifies down to
(49)/(11))
