How do you make 2.60 into a fraction?

Answer 1

Each digit on the right of the decimal point has a value. The first number furthest to the left is in the tenths place. The second is the hundredths place. The third is the thousandths place. (Unlike the left side of the decimal point, there is no ones place.) So if the decimal is 0.5, it ends in the tenths place, so you would read it as five tenths. If the number is 2.5, you would read it as two and five tenths.

_____ To make the decimal into a fraction:____ Let's say your example is 0.3. It ends in the 10ths place, which means your fraction is 3/10. It's actually really simple. If you have the number 0.7, the fraction would be 7/10.

0.65=65/100.

0.49= 49/100.

0.92= 92/100.

If there's a number in the ones place, like the decimal 3.4, your answer would be 3 and 4/10.

1.22= 1 and 22/100.

3.4= 3 and 4/10
