Answer 1

Answer:

$0.46=\frac{23}{50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To write any decimal as a fraction you divide by 1 and multiply by a number (ranging from 10, 100, 1000 etc.) that will make 0.46 a whole number, this will explain:

Let x = $\frac{0.46}{1}$

10x = $10*\frac{0.46}{1} =\frac{4.6}{10}$

100x = $100*\frac{0.46}{1}=\frac{46}{100}$ this is our perfect fraction, now we simplify later

100x - 10x = $\frac{46}{100} -\frac{4.6}{10}$

90x = $\frac{46}{100} -\frac{4.6}{10} =0$  this is to confirm both fractions are equal

x is the same as $\frac{0.46}{1}$ as $\frac{4.6}{10}$ as $\frac{46}{100}$ but here x = $\frac{46}{100}$ because a fraction has to have no decimals.

So  0.46 is equal any of these values, as a fraction, on the other hand, it's improperly equal to $\frac{46}{100} = \frac{23}{50}$ here I divided by 2 to bring down the proper fraction. (fraction at its simplest form)
