Numbers can be categorized into different types, and fractions are one of them. A fraction 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, whereas decimals represent just the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2 is a fraction, while numbers in decimal form are expressed with a decimal point (.), such as 0.375. In this guide, we are going to learn how to convert a decimal, specifically 1.19, to a fraction.

The answer for 1.19 as a fraction is 119/100.

 

Explanation

 

Converting a decimal to a fraction is a straightforward task that students can accomplish easily. Follow the steps below to find the answer.

Step 3: The fraction 119/100 is already in its simplest form since 119 and 100 have no common divisors other than 1.

 

Thus, 1.19 can be written as a fraction 119/100.
