Question

write the decimal as a fraction or a mixed number in simplest form 3.4

Answer 1

write it "over 1" and then multiply both the numerator and denominator to get whole numbers on the top and bottom, here we can multiply by 10

\[3.4 = \frac{3.4}{1} = \frac{34}{10}\]

\[\frac{34}{10} =\frac{17}{5}\]

Answer 2

3 2/5 or 17/5

Answer 3

the last step is to simplify the fraction by dividing until they have no common factors

Answer 4

3 4/10 = 3 2/5=17/5
