Yes, you are correct. To convert a decimal into a fraction, follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the decimal as a fraction by placing the decimal number over a power of 10. For example, if you have the decimal -1.25, write it as -1.25/1.
Step 2: Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 (or by a power of 10) to remove the decimal part. In this case, multiply -1.25/1 by 10/10 to get -12.5/10.
Step 3: Simplify the fraction by reducing it to its simplest form. In this case, you can divide both the numerator and denominator by 2 to get -6.25/5.
Step 4: If there is a negative sign in front of the fraction, you can move it to the numerator or denominator as you prefer. In this case, you can move the negative sign to the numerator to get -6.25/5.
Step 5: If possible, convert the improper fraction (-6.25/5) into a mixed number (a whole number followed by a proper fraction). In this case, the mixed number form of -6.25/5 is -1 1/4.
So, -1.25 as a fraction is -1 1/4.
