We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.
The answer for 4.44 as a fraction will be 111/25.
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, 4.44 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 4.44 becomes 4.44/1.
Step 2: To remove the decimal from the fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100 (because there are two decimal places). 4.44/1 × 100/100 = 444/100
Step 3: Here 4 is the GCD of 444 and 100. Now, to make the fraction simpler, divide the numerator and denominator by 4. 444/100 = 111/25 Hence, 4.44 is in the form of the fraction 111/25.
Thus, 4.44 can be written as a fraction 111/25.
