Question

-3.75 into a fraction

Answer 1

Ignore the negative sign for now.

3.75

Split the number into its whole number component and decimal component

3.75 = 3 + 0.75

For the decimal component, 0.75 is the same as 75/100

75/100

Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 75, 100

GCF = 25

Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCF

75 ÷ 25/100 ÷ 25

Simplify

3/4

Combine the whole number component with the fraction

3 3/4

Add the negative sign back

-3 3/4

Answer 2

$-3 \frac{3}{4}$
is the answer bc .25/100 = 1/3 so .25×3 is 75 and 75/100 = 3/4
75÷25 = 3 and 100÷25=4
