6.65 as a fraction

 

Answer

 

The answer for 6.65 as a fraction is 133/20.

 

Explanation

 

Converting a decimal to a fraction is a straightforward process. You can follow these steps to find the answer.

 

Step 1: First, any decimal number should be converted to a fraction for easy calculation. Here, 6.65 is the number with the numerator as 6.65 and the base number 1 as the denominator. It becomes 6.65/1.

 

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). 6.65/1 × 100/100 = 665/100

 

Step 3: The GCD of 665 and 100 is 5. Now, to simplify the fraction, divide the numerator and denominator by 5. 665/100 = 133/20

 

Thus, 6.65 can be written as the fraction 133/20.
