Answer 2

Answer:

2 87/200

step by step explanation:

2.435 = 2.435/1

Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 3 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000. So,

2.435/1

= (2.435 × 1000)

(1 × 1000)

= 2435/1000

Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(2435,1000) = 5. So,

(2435÷5)

(1000÷5)

= 487/200

when reduced to the simplest form.

As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 2435/1000

is also equal to 2 87/200

when expressed as a mixed number.
