1. Type into calculator -2.25 and press the equals button.
2. Press the Shift button
3. Press the button dat has ab/c
And dis should giv you a fraction
You can think of this in two parts.
-2.25 has numbers before and after the decimal.
Before the decimal, you have -2. Just leave that like it is.
After the decimal, you have 25. This is the part that really needs converted. To do that, let's look at the names of the places after the decimal:
.x = tenths
.0x = hundreths
.00x = thousandths
etc.
Since there are 2 numbers after the decimal, you are dealing with hundreths. There are 25 hundreths.
Take the fraction 25/100
So the answer (there is one more step) is
-2 25/100
25/100 = 1/4
So you have
-2 1/4
