Yes please?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Since the answer choices are in fraction form..
OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):
0.02905/100000
"Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. (For example, if there are two numbers after the decimal point, then use 100, if there are three then use 1000, etc.)"
OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):
Now, to simplify this we need to ask ourselves if the numerator and the denominator can be divided by the same number.
OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):
Can it? (Sorry not aloud to give direct answers. This makes the whole process rather slow.)

Thats the list
OpenStudy (ddos_dragon):
02905/100000 is our fraction.
Now we need to find a number that can divide into both the numerator and the denominator.
