Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an incomplete sentence. We are supposed to complete our given sentence.

Sentence:

The number 0.35 is a(n) __________ number because __________.

We know that 0.35 is a rational number as we can represent it as a fraction.

Since 0.35 has two digits after decimal, so we will multiply and divide 0.35 by 100 as:

$0.35\times \frac{100}{100}=\frac{3.5\times 100}{100}=\frac{35}{100}=\frac{5*7}{5*20}=\frac{7}{20}$.

Therefore, the correct word for 1st blank is 'rational' and correct expression for 2nd blank is 'it can be written as a fraction $\frac{7}{20}$.
