<em /><em />
<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
<em>Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator.</em>
<em>Then </em>
<em>Multiply to remove 3 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 103 = 1000</em>
<em>And then....</em>
<em>Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 425 and 1000, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 25.</em>
<em>Therefore x = -17/40</em>
<em> In conclusion, – 0.425 = -17/40</em>
<em>Have a great day/night!</em>
