Not all decimals can be expressed as fractions. Only terminating and recurring decimals can be expressed as fractions.
eg
a recurring decimal:
0.3333333... = 1/3
A terminating decimal:
0.125 = 1/8
A decimal that does not recurr or terminate, cannot be expressed as a fraction.
eg
Pi = 3.141592654...
Pi can not be expressed as a fraction as it does not recurr or terminate.
It can only be approximated to a fraction.
eg
Pi ≈ 355/113 but is correct to 6 decimal places.

Is 0.1a equelivent fraction?
Every fraction is an equivalent fraction: each fraction in decimal form has an equivalent rational fraction as well as an equivalent percentage fraction.
How do you express a percent as a fraction or a mixed number?
The percent sign in every percent means, "out of 100." Therefore, to express a percent as a fraction, simply place the percent number over 100 and simplify if possible. If it is an improper fraction, to change it into a mixed number, see: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_express_a_fraction_into_a_mixed_number&updated=1&waNoAnsSet=2
Does every fraction have an equivalent decimal?
Yes, it may be a repeating decimal, such as 1/3 = 0.33333.... or 1/11 = 0.090909.... or something longer such as 1/7 = 0.142857142857142857.... where the '142857' is the repeating part. But every rational number (eg. fraction) can be mapped to a corresponding decimal equivalent.
What is 261 as a fraction and decimal?
Well, let's take a moment to appreciate the number 261. As a fraction, 261 can be written as 261/1, which is already in its simplest form. And as a decimal, 261 is simply 261.0, showing its full and complete self. Remember, every number is special in its own way, just like you are special too.
What is 182 percent as a fraction?
To convert a percentage to a fraction, you divide the percentage by 100 and simplify the fraction if possible. In this case, 182 percent divided by 100 is 1.82. Therefore, 182 percent as a fraction is 182/100, which simplifies to 91/50 in its simplest form.
Can you express every decimal as a fraction?
No, not all can be put to a fraction like in algebra this year we can't.
Is it possible to express every fraction as a decimal without rounding?
As long as you are expressing those fractions in tenths, yes.
How can you find a fraction and a decimal on a number line?
Everywhere. Each and every point on a number line is a fraction and also a decimal.
How is a decimal similar to fractions?
A decimal is similar to a fraction because they are both part of a whole number, not a whole number, just part of one. For example, 0.5 is the same thing as 1/2 , or half. This means both are only half of a whole number.
Is 0.1a equelivent fraction?
Every fraction is an equivalent fraction: each fraction in decimal form has an equivalent rational fraction as well as an equivalent percentage fraction.
Can every rational fraction be written as a repeating decimal?
Any rational number is either a repeating decimal, or a terminating decimal.
What kind of decimal does every fraction have?
it looks just like a period

What is the conceptual relationship of a fraction and decimal?
What is the difference between a fraction and a decimal? Well it is possible for a fraction changed into a decimal and a decimal changed into a fraction Very true. Though conceptually 2/5 or 4/10 can raise a slightly different picture in the mind than the equivalent 0.4 . The fraction brings out more strongly that 2 in every 5 are being considered, while 0.4 is just a quantity not quite half way on the way from 1 to 10. The nearest that the decimal system approaches the fractional concept is the use of the "percentage" idea.
Is it true that every rational number is an integer?
No because it could be a fraction or a decimal
