Q:

Express 0.875 and 0.375 as a Fraction.

A) 3/11 & 7/11	B) 7/9 & 9/13
C) 7/8 & 3/8	D) 7/9 & 9/11

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7/8 & 3/8

Explanation:

Given 0.875 and 0.375

0.875 ::

After decimal point there are 3 digits 875

Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000

$0.875 x \frac{1000}{1000} = \frac{875}{1000} Now, this can be reduced to fraction \frac{7}{8} Therefore, 0.875 as fraction = \frac{7}{8}$

Similarly,

0.375 ::

After decimal point there are 3 digits 375

Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000

$0.375 x \frac{1000}{1000} = \frac{375}{1000} Now, this can be reduced to fraction \frac{3}{8} Therefore, 0.375 as fraction = \frac{3}{8}$
