Im confused on

Im confused on how you are supposed to solve it Ms. Sue.

Divide 144 by 100.

You're looking for a fraction.

Im still confused because I'm getting a decimal

How do I do this

. 1 11/25 IS RIGHT

Do the division by hand.

Or change the decimal to a fraction. You can use the process of elimination. You know what the decimal is. Only two of your answer choices contain fractions. Only one of these has a whole number that makes sense.

You're welcome.
