To convert 12.2 to a fraction

Solution 1:

1. Make 12.2 into a whole number.

In this case, multiply 12.2 by 10.

2. Whatever is multiplied to 12.2 should also be divided to it so as not to change the value of 12.2.

Therefore:

12.2 * 10/10 = 122/10 or 61/5 in fraction in lowest term

Solution 2: 12.2 = 12 + 0.2

0.2 = 2/10 = 1/5

therefore

12 + 1/5

12*5/5 + 1/5

61/5

To convert from a decimal to a fraction, you should first multiply the decimal by a power of 10 such that there are no remaining numbers after the decimal point. In this case, we can multiply by 100 to give 122. Put the 100 as the denominator and we have a starting point of 122/100. The next step is to identify any common divisors. In this case both numerator and denominator can divide by 2. Do that and you get 61/50. There are no more common divisors, and so 1.22 as a fraction in its simplest form is 61/50.
