57.9 as a Fraction

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Numbers can be categorized into different types. A fraction is one such type. 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. Numbers in decimal form are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 57.9. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.

Answer

 

The answer for 57.9 as a fraction will be 579/10.

 

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, 57.9 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 57.9 becomes 57.9/1.

 

Step 2: To remove the decimal from a fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 (because there is only 1 decimal place). 57.9/1 × 10/10 = 579/10

 

Step 3: The fraction 579/10 is already in its simplest form. No further simplification is needed.

 

Thus, 57.9 can be written as a fraction 579/10.
