Answer:

12 1/25

Explanation:

First, write the decimal as a fraction. To do this you can leave the 12 alone and just use the .04. This becomes 4/100 because the 4 is in the hundreds place.

Then simplify by finding the least common factor, in this case 4, and dividing both the numerator and denominator by this. This results in 1/25.

Finally add them together to get, 12 1/25.
