In order for me to change this decimal to a complex Fraction, and simplify did I di it correctly?

.12 1/2 = 0.06

.12 times one half ?

(12/100)(1/2)

12/200

6/100

0.06 however nothing there is a complex fraction

0.12 / (1/2) would be because there is a fraction in the denominator
(12/100) / (1/2)
multiply top and bottom by 200
24/100 or 0.24

I am sorry it should be .12 1/2 , so will the answer still be the same except adding the decimal to decimal to ,6 /100 or .06/100

.12 1/2 means what?

.12 + 1/2 ?
.12 * 1/2 ?

To convert a decimal to a complex fraction, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Write the decimal as a fraction. In this case, the decimal is 0.12. To write it as a fraction, we put the decimal over 1 and remove the decimal point: 0.12/1.

Step 2: Determine the denominator of the complex fraction. Since the decimal has two decimal places, we can put a 1 followed by two zeros as the denominator: 100.

Step 3: Multiply the numerator and denominator of the decimal fraction by the same power of 10 to make it a whole number. In this case, we need to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100 to eliminate the decimal point: (0.12 × 100)/(1 × 100) = 12/100.

Step 4: Simplify the fraction, if possible. In this case, the fraction 12/100 can be simplified by canceling out common factors. Both 12 and 100 can be divided by 4 to simplify the fraction: 12/100 = (12 ÷ 4)/(100 ÷ 4) = 3/25.

So, the correct conversion of the decimal 0.12 to a complex fraction is 3/25.

Regarding your statement that 0.12 1/2 = 0.06, it seems there might be a misunderstanding or a calculation error. Please double-check your calculations to verify the accuracy of the statement.
