Best Answer

Split the number into two parts; before the decimal point and after the decimal point.

Before the decimal point we have 5.

After the decimal point with have .1 which we can write as 0.1. 0.1 means one tenth. Thus as a fraction we would write this as 1/10.

Now just combine the two parts again and we have 5 1/10.
