Question

Write each decimal as a percent and a fraction -0.04

Answer 1

-4% -1/25

Explanation:

To convert a decimal to a percentage, multiply it by 100.

-0.04 * 100 = -4

To convert a decimal to a fraction, put the decimal as a fraction over 1 and multiply until the numerator (top number) is a whole number and then simplify.

`(-0.04)/(1)` x
`(100)/(100)` =
`(-4)/(100)`

-4/100 simplified = -1/25 (because 4 goes into 100 25 times)
