Which simplified fraction is equal to 0.53 with bar?
Oxana [17]

I assume that 0.53 with a bar means the decimal fraction in which 3 is repeating.

24/45, 8/15, and 48/90 all result in the same decimal value. Thus, we are simply looking for the one that is fully simplified.

The correct answer is 8/15.

Hope this helps!
