Your answer for the first question (b) is correct.
I don't think you copied the second question correctly.
there are A 7 6/100
B 76/10
C 7 6/10
D 76/100
This time you got it right. Your previous D response was different. Yes, D is correct.
To write the decimal number 6.38 as a common fraction or mixed number in lowest terms, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the whole number part of the decimal. In this case, the whole number part is 6.
Step 2: Identify the fractional part of the decimal. In this case, the fractional part is 0.38.
Step 3: Convert the fractional part to a fraction. Since there are two decimal places in 0.38, we can represent it as 38/100.
Step 4: Simplify the fraction. To simplify the fraction, you can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2 in this case. So, 38/100 simplifies to 19/50.
Therefore, the decimal number 6.38 can be written as the mixed number 6 19/50.
Applying the same steps to the second question:
Step 1: The whole number part of the decimal 0.76 is 0.
Step 2: The fractional part of the decimal is 0.76.
Step 3: Converting the fractional part to a fraction, we get 76/100.
Step 4: Simplifying the fraction, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4. So, 76/100 simplifies to 19/25.
Since there is no whole number part, the decimal number 0.76 can be written simply as the fraction 19/25.
So, the correct answers are:
For the first question, the answer is B) 6 19/50.
For the second question, the answer is D) 19/25.
