Question

Faction Equivalent demcimal for 2.46

Answer 1

Here is you're answer:

In order to find the answer you have to switch all the options into decimals to see which one is equivalent to 2.46!

• $\frac{246}{1000}$
• $\frac{246}{1000} = 246 \div 1000 = 0.246$
• $2\frac{46}{1000}$
• $2\frac{46}{1000} = \frac{1023}{500} = 1023 \div 500 = 2.046$
• $2 \frac{23}{50} = \frac{123}{50} = 123 \div 50=2.46$ <-- You're answer.
• $\frac{223}{500} = 223 \div 500 = 0.446$

Therefore you're answer is option C "2 23/50." Remember when wanting to find the decimal divide the numerator by the denominator after you convert the mixed number (if it's a mixed number) into a improper fraction!

Hope this helps!
