0.4545 as a fraction

Answer

 

The answer for 0.4545 as a fraction will be 5/11.

 

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: Identify that 0.4545 is a repeating decimal with "45" as the repeating part. Let x = 0.4545...

 

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 100 to move the decimal point two places to the right (since "45" is two digits long): 100x = 45.4545...

 

Step 3: Subtract the original equation from this new equation to eliminate the repeating part: 100x - x = 45.4545... - 0.4545...

 

Step 4: This simplifies to: 99x = 45

 

Step 5: Solve for x by dividing both sides by 99: x = 45/99 Step 6: Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their GCD, which is 9: 45/99 = 5/11

 

Thus, 0.4545 can be written as a fraction 5/11.
