A fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Decimals represent the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2, the numbers in decimal are expressed with a decimal point (.), For example, 2.00, we are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.
The answer for 2.00 as a fraction will be 2/1.
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, 2.00 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 2.00 becomes 2.00/1.
Step 2: To remove the decimal from a fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100 (because there are 2 decimal places). 2.00/1 × 100/100 = 200/100
Step 3: Here 100 is the GCD of 200 and 100. Now, to simplify the fraction, divide the numerator and denominator by 100. 200/100 = 2/1 Hence, 2.00 is in the form of a fraction 2/1.
Thus, 2.00 can be written as a fraction 2/1.
