Answer:
Thus, 28/5 is equivalent of 5.6
Explanation:
Given
Number is 5.6
it is in decimal form.
The first number after decimal represent the tenth of number
The Second number after decimal represent the hundredth of number
and similarly we can define thousandth of a number.
Step to write decimal number in fractional form is (say a.bcd
write the full number without decimal
so number will be
abcd
divide the number by 1
abcd/1
now count the number of digit after decimal and put as many 0's after 1
there are three digits after decimal, we will put three digit after 1 in denominator
thus number in fraction is
abcd/1000

Given number is 5.6
hence writing it in fractional form as explained above
5.6 = 56/10
56 = 28*2
10 = 2*5
5.6 = 56/10 = 2*28/2*5 = 28/5
Thus, 28/5 is equivalent of 5.6
