Explanation

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, 16.75 is the number with the whole part 16 and the decimal part 0.75. We can express it as 16 + 0.75 or simply 16.75/1.
