Answer 1

Answer: Mixed fraction in simplest form is given by

$1\frac{16}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that,

A share of stock gained a total points = 1.64

Since it has a whole part i.e. 1 and decimal part i.e. 64 which is convert into a fraction as it is 0.64 , we will divide it by 100 to remove the decimal and make it a fraction.

In mixed fraction , we will write as

$1\frac{64}{100}\\\\=1\frac{16}{25}$

Hence, we get a required answer.
