Question

Write 2.19 as the ratio of two integers in fraction form

Answer 1

Answer:  $\frac{219}{100}$

======================================================

Explanation:

Think of $2.19$ as $\frac{2.19}{1}$ or $\frac{2.19}{1.00}$

This works because dividing anything over 1 does not change the original number.

Then we can move the decimal point two spots to the right for each number

• 2.19 becomes 219
• 1.00 becomes 100

Therefore, $2.19 = \frac{219}{100}$
