Numbers can be categorized into different types. Fraction is one of its kind. It is always represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. A fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Decimals represent the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2; the numbers in decimal are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 0.75. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.
The answer for 0.75 as a fraction will be 3/4.
Explanation
Converting a decimal to a fraction is a task for students that can be done easily. You can follow the steps mentioned below to find the answer.
Step 1: Firstly, any decimal number should be converted to a fraction for easy calculation. Here, 0.75 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 0.75 becomes 0.75/1.
Step 2: To remove the decimal from a fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100 (because there are only 2 decimal places). 0.75/1 × 100/100 = 75/100
Step 3: Here 25 is the GCD of 75 and 100. Now, to make the fraction simpler, divide the numerator and denominator by 25. 75/100 = 3/4 Hence, 0.75 is in the form of the fraction 3/4.
Thus, 0.75 can be written as a fraction 3/4.
