How is -6.25 converted into a fraction?

Answer 1

Well, isn't that a happy little question! To convert -6.25 into a fraction, we first turn the decimal into a fraction by putting it over 100, which gives us -625/100. Then, we simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25, resulting in -25/4. Just like that, we've turned a decimal into a fraction, and now we have a lovely little -25/4 to work with.

Answer 2

Just like any decimal, you can change -6.25 to -6 and 25/100. From there, you can simplify the fraction to get -6 and 1/4.

Going farther, you can take -6 and 1/4 and chance it into an IMPROPER FRACTION (where your numerator has a greater value than your denominator). Multiply 6*4 and add 1 to get a numerator of 25, and keep the denominator 4. Dont forget your negative sign!

Your final fraction would be -25/4.
