Answer:

13 253/1000

Explanation:

To convert 13.253 to a fraction first write it like this:

13.253/1

As we have 3 digits after the decimal point in the numerator, we need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10^3= 1000, so that there is no decimal point in the numerator.

13.253 x 1000 / 1 x 1000 = 13253/1000

As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an improper fraction, so we can also express 13.253 as a mixed number, thus 13253/1000 is equal to:

13 253/1000
