Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Not so simple. See discussion below
Discussion:
Consider these two examples:
0<= f < = 1, then (2/3) * f < (2/3) * 1 = 2/3
so the product is less than either of the factors
f = -5, then (2/3)* (-5/1) = -10/3
so the product is actually larger than the factor -5 !
In other words, the general answer depends upon the sign as well as value of the fraction. The problem probably meant that multiplying a positive fraction by a number less than 1 and >= 0 makes the product smaller. But as your see from the above examples, a more fine grained analysis is required for a full answer.
Thank you,
MrB

Answer:
0.72 and 18/25
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Address input parameters & values.
Input parameters & values: The decimal number = 0.72
2) Write it as a fraction 0.72/1
3) Multiply 100 to both numerator & denominator
(0.72 x 100)/(1 x 100) = 72/100
It can be written as 72% = 72/100 or 72/100
4) To simplify 72/100 to its lowest terms, find LCM (Least Common Multiple) for 72 & 100. 4 is the LCM for 72 & 100.
5) divide numerator & denominator by 4. 72/100 = (72 / 4) / (100 / 4)= 18/25
6) 18/25 and 0.72.
Answer:
the answer to this is y=x+3
