Answer:

Explanation:

Decimal to fraction:

  • Write the decimal number with denominator 1
  • Now , multiply the numerator and the denominator by 10 for every number after the decimal point.
  • Simplify

Example:

4.52


4.52 =(4.52)/(1)

In 4.52, there are two decimal places. So multiply the numerator and denominator by 100


(4.52*100)/(1*100)=(452)/(100)=(452 / 4)/(100 / 4)=(113)/(25)
