How do you make the decimal 2.2 in to a mixed number?

Answer 1

This is very simple. if you have a number such a 2.3 this would be written in fractional form as 2 3/10. the reason for this is because the 3 occupies the ten's decimal space, so we know it is 3 over 10 in fractional form. the number before the decimal is simply put in front of the fraction. 3.35 would be written as 3 35/100. this is because 35 occupies not just the tens but the hundreds space as well, so its out of 100. again the 3 jsut goes right before the fraction. depending on how many numbers come after the decimal will determine your denominator. also dont forget to reduce your fractions. the whole number will remaine the same and go in front of the fraction.

Answer 2

Multiply the decimal by 100 (to get a whole number) and place this in the numerator. Then place 100 in the denominator. Simplify if possible.

Answer 3

Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 2.2 is equal to 2 1/5 or two and one fifth.
