3.55 = 355/1000 or 71/200 in fraction
223/71 and 22/7
There are infinitely many fractions between any two different fractions. 7/24 would do, but so would 71/240, 70/241 etc
(5/12) + (3/7) = (35/84) + (36/84) = 71/84
You can convert both into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. Then the fraction with the smaller numerator is the smaller number. Converting to percentages is the same: the common denominator is 100 and the numerators are the percentages.Alternatively, you could convert both into equivalent fractions with the same numerator and then the fraction with the larger denominator is the smaller fraction. This is a better method when the numerators are small and the denominators are large.Suppose you were required to compare 4/93 and 3/71 (extreme example). The conventional method would require you to find the common denominator, which is 6603. Then the equivalent fractions can be calculated as 4/93 = 284/6603 and 3/71 = 279/6603. Since the second numerator is smaller, the second fraction, 3/71, is smaller. All this requires some serious calculations.Using the alternative method, the least common numerator is 12 so that the equivalent fractions are 4/93 = (4*3)/(93*3) = 12/279, and 3/71 = (3*4)/(71*4) = 12/284. The second denominator, 284, is larger so the second fraction is smaller.*** WARNING ***This is a perfectly valid method but, but it is somewhat unconventional. It may not be one that is approved in many schools. Make sure you have an open minded teacher before using it for school work.
1.42 in fraction = 71/501.42 * 100/100 = 142/100 or 71/50 in fraction in lowest term

because the water in earth is 71% then 29% of land.
convert fractions to decimal then just compare them,and then put them in order!:)
(5/12) + (3/7) = (35/84) + (36/84) = 71/84
Oh, dude, converting decimals to fractions? That's like, so easy. You just take the decimal and put it over 1, so 71.002 becomes 71.002/1. And like, that's your fraction. Simple, right?
