Answer:

Well, you could....

Rewrite the decimal as a fraction with a denominator of 1.

Then, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100.

Then, simplify if necessary.

Explanation:

Ex:

0.25 ....

.25

-----

1

--------------------------------------------------------

.25 x 100 25

------ = ------

1 x 100 100

---------------------------------------------------------

25 / 5 5 1

---------- = ----- = -----

100 / 5 20 4
