To write 1.42 as a fraction, you first need to determine the place value of the last digit. In this case, the last digit is in the hundredths place. So, 1.42 can be written as 142/100 because the decimal point is moved two places to the right to convert it to a fraction. This fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which in this case is 2, resulting in 71/50.
