How do you Convert 2.73 to a fraction?

Answer 1

the answer is: 2 8/11.

That's approximately true (2.727....) . But 2.72 means 2 + 7 tenths + 3 hundredths. Now 7 tenths is 70 hundredths, and 2 is just 200 hundredths, so it adds up to 273 hundredths. The quickest way to this answer is to say 2.73 is the same as 2.73 x 100 / 100, which is 273/100
