Let’s start with 2.5 into a fraction.

2.5 has a decimal and a whole number part, so you can know that you will have 2 as your whole number.

.5 is five tenths, so you could say 5/10.

5/10 simplified is 1/2.

2.5 as a fraction is 2 1/2.

19/20 is a little harder, but let’s start!

We need to find what 20 is multiplied by to get 100. 100 divided by 20 is 5.

Now that you have that number, you want to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 5.

19 x 5 = 95
_____
20 x 5 = 100

95/100 is easy to turn into a decimal.

Ninety-five one hundredths is 95/100.

Ninety-five one hundredths is also .95



Your answers are 2 1/2 and .95
