Write 15.1 as a fraction
mel-nik [20]
<span>If you want to convert 15.1 into a fraction, you can do it like this:
15 <span>equals to 15</span>/1 <span>and </span>0.1 <span>equals to 1</span>/10
<span>The result is 15</span> 1/10.

If you want to make it a pure fraction, you have to make one additional step:
<span>because you want to add 15/1 and 1/10, you have to get the same denominators, so 15/1 changes to 150</span>/10. 
<span>Now, you can add </span>150/10 and 1/10<span>. The result is </span>151/10<span>.
