Step-by-step explanation:
how to convert .038 to a fraction...
There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write .038 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .038, means.
Since there are 3 digits in 038, the very last digit is the "1000th" decimal place.
So we can just say that .038 is the same as 038/1000.
The fraction 38/1000 is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest
terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.
Why divide by 2?
2 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)
or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 38 and 1000.
So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is 19/500
So your final answer is: .038 can be written as the fraction 19/500
