Explanation

Converting a decimal to a fraction is a task that can be easily done by following a few steps. Below are the steps to find the answer.

Step 1: Firstly, any decimal number should be converted to a fraction for easy calculation. Here, 11.4 is the number on the numerator and the base number 1 will be the denominator. Then, 11.4 becomes 11.4/1.

Step 2: To remove the decimal from a fraction, you need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 (because there is only 1 decimal place). 11.4/1 × 10/10 = 114/10

Step 3: Here, 2 is the GCD of 114 and 10. Now, to make the fraction simpler, divide the numerator and denominator by 2. 114/10 = 57/5 Hence, 11.4 is in the fraction form of 57/5.

Thus, 11.4 can be written as a fraction 57/5.
