Question

Write 140% as a fraction and a decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

1 2/5 and 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

For a fraction:

Put 140 in a fraction with 100 -> 140/100

Find the greatest common divisor which is 20.

Divide each number by 20 -> (140/20)/(100/20) = 7/5

7/5 is a improper fraction so it needs to be rewrote into a mixed number.

5 goes into 7 one time. 5 + 2 = 7.

The answer is 1 2/5

For a decimal:

140/100 = 1.4
