Answer: 7 7/20

Explanation:

Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator

7.35=7.35 / 1

Multiply to remove 2 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 100

7.35/ 1 × 100/ 100=735 / 100

Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 735 and 100, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 5

735 ÷ 5 = 147

100 ÷ 5 = 20

Divide 147/ 20 = 7 7/20
