Step-by-step explanation:
7.02 = 351/50 = 7×1/50 as a fraction
To convert the decimal 7.02 to a fraction, just follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:
7.02 = 7.02/1
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:
As we have 2 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 100. So,
7.02/1 = (7.02 × 100)/(1 × 100) = 702/100.
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(702,100) = 2. So,
(702÷2)/(100÷2) = 351/50 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 702/100 is also equal to 7×1/50 when expressed as a mixed number
