Best Answer

0.72 as a decimal in simplest form is 18/25.

To convert a decimal into a fraction

(1) write a 1 under the decimal in fraction form: .72/1

(2) remove the decimal and add as many 0's to the right side of the 1 as there are numbers to the right of the decimal: 72/100

(3) reduce the fraction to its lowest terms: 72/100 can be reduced to 18/25

"Improper fractions" are used only for numbers that are greater or equal to 1. You don't just convert any number to an improper fraction.
