For example, 1/2, the numbers in decimal are expressed with a decimal point (.), For example, 1.35, we are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.
The answer for 1.35 as a fraction will be 27/20.
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, 1.35 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 1.35 becomes 1.35/1.
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). 1.35/1 × 100/100 = 135/100
Step 3: Here 5 is the GCD of 135 and 100. Now, to make the fraction simpler, divide the numerator and denominator by 5. 135/100 = 27/20 Hence, 1.35 in fractional form is 27/20.
Thus, 1.35 can be written as a fraction 27/20.
