How do you write 4.2 as a mixed number?

Answer 1

Well, honey, to write 4.2 as a mixed number, you simply divide 4.2 by 1 to get 4 whole, and then you're left with 0.2. Since 0.2 is the same as 2/10, the mixed number would be 4 2/10. But if you want to simplify it, it would be 4 1/5. So there you have it, darling.

Answer 2

To write 4.2 as a mixed number, you need to separate the whole number part from the decimal part. Since 4 is the whole number part of 4.2, the decimal part .2 can be expressed as a fraction over 10 (since there is one digit after the decimal point). Therefore, 4.2 can be written as the mixed number 4 2/10, which simplifies to 4 1/5.

Answer 3

4.2 written as a mixed number is 4 and 2/10, or 4 1/5 in simplest form.
