Change a decimal to a fraction?

move the dec. two spaces to the right and put it over 100 then simplify.

or you can follow these to different ways to do it.

Method 1:write the decimal using its place value, then simplify.

Method 2:write the numbers in the decimal as the numerator. for the denominator put a 1, and then add a zero for each number to the right of the denominator. finally simplify.

Example:

change 0.85 into a fraction. 0.85 = 85/100
