Answer:

12/25

Explanation:

Change the decimal to fraction form. Move the decimal point to the right two place values and set over 100:

0.48 = 48/100

Note that you must simplify. Divide common factors from both the numerator and denominator:

(48/100)/(4/4) = 12/25

12/25 is your simplest form fraction.
