Question

Which fraction has the same value as 0.6

Answer 1

Since 6 is in the tenths place, you could turn the decimal to 6/10.  You could simplify 6/10 to 3/5 by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2/2.

Answer 2

Using the place value chart we can see that the decimal 0.6 is six tenths, so we can write 0.6 as the fraction $\frac{6}{10}$. Notice however that $\frac{6}{10}$ is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 which is 2.
