A decimal number
0.77 is a DECIMAL . As a mixed fraction/number we write 0.77/1.00 Note ; since there are two decimal places we write one point and two zeroes. Hence 0.77 / 1.00 Cancel down the decimal point so it reads 77/100. As a fraction this will not reduce any further, as there are no common factors in either number.
No. Regardless of the particular definition being used for whole numbers, one thing is common: a number that necessitates a fraction or decimal, like 0.75, is not whole. It is, however, a rational number.
To convert a decimal to a fraction, you can write it as the decimal number over a power of 10. In this case, 0.23 can be written as 23/100. To simplify this fraction, you can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which in this case is 1. Therefore, the equivalent decimal to 0.23 is 23/100.
