1.08 written as a fraction is 1 2/25.

Here's how to convert 1.08 to a fraction... There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 1.08 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .08, means. Since there are 2 digits in 08, the very last digit is the "100th" decimal place. So we can just say that .08 is the same as 08/100. The fraction 1 8/100 is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4. Why divide by 4? 4 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 8 and 100. So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is 1 2/25. So your final answer is: 1.08 can be written as the fraction 1 2/25.
