Numbers in decimal form are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 9.05. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.
The answer for 9.05 as a fraction is 181/20.
Converting a decimal to a fraction is a task 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, 9.05 is the number with the numerator as 9.05 and the base number 1 as the denominator. Then, 9.05 becomes 9.05/1.
Step 2: To remove the decimal from the fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100 (because there are 2 decimal places). 9.05/1 × 100/100 = 905/100
Step 3: Here, 5 is the GCD of 905 and 100. Now, to make the fraction simpler, divide the numerator and denominator by 5. 905/100 = 181/20 Hence, 9.05 is in the form of the fraction 181/20.
Thus, 9.05 can be written as a fraction 181/20.
